After so long, my hacked account is still roaming free.

And the admin is not doing anything to recover nor terminate the hacked account.

You admin guys may be quick to claim you are on the good side, but your actions and complacency show me that you are very much part of the corruption.

Did you follow the instructions here?: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0

Have you made a request to put a freeze on the account to a Mod or Admin?
There are people on here that are helping people in you situation, You've got to
follow the guide in that pinned post. If you need help with that, you'll need to request it.

I did not stake my bitcoin address here. So there is no point to send a signed message with any bitcoin message for recovery.
The team is effectively telling everyone they only accept signed bitcoin messages as the one and only validating method.

That is the case as it is the only way to verify that someone was the original owner of the account. Otherwise, people could just claim accounts were hacked because they held some grudge against the account owner, as has happened before.

My hacked account is now making comments mostly in totally foreign language that never happened in the past and by right that is obvious sign of a hacked account.
But the admins are intellectually bankrupt by ignoring that.

The admins set out the procedure for recovering accounts here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0 which is pinned on this board so it is always in view. You were negligent in not securing your account by not staking an address you could use to reclaim it.

I'm not sure if that will be enough to convince someone of default trust to tag the account but you could try asking. That will at least make it worthless to the hacker.

Why the admins strongly insist on signed bitcoin messages as the one and only acceptable way of validation?
Yes, I agree signed bitcoin messages is super secure and cannot be easily tampered with, but why is it the one and only way acceptable?
Why wasn't every other security measure in place to prevent fraud?

Are the admins trying to set a precedence to show to the world that signed bitcoin messages is the only secure way to go?

Now my hacked account is making Turkish comments and there is nothing I can do about it because of the insecurity of signed bitcoin messages.

Moaning about the policy isn't going to get you anywhere.

Open a thread in Trading Discussion > Reputation https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=129.0 saying the account is hacked. Give as much evidence as you can and ask someone on DT to tag the account.

I'm pretty sure they use this method because, YOU are the only person who can create a message with That SPECIFIC address.
Even if an account gets hacked, and you still have access to YOUR wallet with the address, Only YOU can add a message to the signature.
I understand your frustration, but it is a good method of verification. Had I not been able to use this method, my account would have been lost.
I literally just got my count back a few days ago.

Perhaps was there any OTHER place on social media or another website you may have staked the address? For a campaign or something?
