Over 6 months ago, I sent a PM to Cyrus and then Theymos regarding my (then-recently) compromised account.

(Thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4993954.msg45046926#msg45046926)

However, seeing a case in which alts with junior member status received some sort of reply (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3652698.0) in much less than the time I've been waiting, I'm starting to seriously consider the possibility that my PMs were disregarded based on the Newbie PM warning. "!!! WARNING: This user is a newbie. If you are expecting a message from a more veteran member, then this is an imposter !!!"


I'm aware that the recovery process isn't fast at all, regardless, but I'm curious if I'd need to wait to send PMs until after reaching a higher rank.

Thanks for your thoughts.

I don't think your Newbie status matters. Theymos is working on an automated system to recover accounts, the last time I read about it, it was expected before the end of this year.

Rank of your alt account doesn't matter in this case. It's just a sad reality of Bitcointalk that almost all account recovery related messages are ignored by admins and your story isn't exception. theymos said that he aren't recovering accounts anymore. Don't know about Cyrus, but I haven't heard about successful account recovery cases in recent 10 months maybe.
theymos is working to make automated account recovery system, but I have no idea when it will be finnished. So, people who lost their accounts now are forced to wait in frustration
