Legendary account banned! [Appeal][3.5 year passed]

[hilariousandco]

Are you the real original GreatOrchid?

If so, tell me.. Who is Lurker?

Lets see if you are really even you..

Is there some doubt that this is the original account owner?

Bumping, seeking support.

Can you sign a message from an old address?

From what I know, your odds is too low. About one year and your ban appeal has not yet been accepted while there are some ban appeals were accepted months ago.

Many people have been unbanned and given signature bans instead. I do think a permaban forever is harsh in many cases, especially if it was only one or two instances of plagiarism, but it's hard to tell/know of how many they did ultimately and especially now.

I tried a lot finding my private keys for the previous addresses but can't find much.
Fortunately I found my wallet Id for blockchain.com wallet and I can now access that wallet but yet I can't find a way to sign a message from blockchain.com.

I'm still looking for a way to sign a message from this address as I do have access to my wallet.

Plus, I have never changed my email address on my profile and still I am actively using the email mentioned on my profile. I can even send a mail from my registered email address to prove the ownership.(I already have sent a mail few months ago though)

I would readily accept a signature ban as I already mentioned that I do not just want to use this forum to participate in any signature campaigns. I want to start contributing for the betterment of the forum in any possible way. I really appreciate your polite thoughts. Also, I've suffered for more than a year so perhaps now I might be forgiven and given an another chance to prove my worthiness.

Open the "Wallets & Addresses" menu on settings, and from the address you want to sign the addres, More Options--->Sign

You could also export the private key (same tab, but private key instead of sign) and sign it on electrum (for example).

Hope that helps you

I already tried everything possible. I googled regarding the same and even I checked on this forum as well but yet can't find the exact solution to sign a message from blockchain wallet.

The method you said is only applicable for imported address and not the original address present on the wallet.
I've attached a screenshot below and hope there might be some other way to sign a message from this wallet.

https://i.imgur.com/Tu9h7r3.png (I can't even upload a image as the rank of this account does not permit me to do so)

The only last option for me would be that I'll share my wallet id with some trusted member over here so that he/she can actually verify what I hold the address.

My bad; I tried it on my own wallet before posting, but didn't realize I used an imported address...

The only last option for me would be that I'll share my wallet id with some trusted member over here so that he/she can actually verify what I hold the address.

The only alternative that comes to mind is that if you still have the seed for that wallet you import it on electrum, and from there you signed a message.
If you don't have the seed you can see it again on the security center, as it seems that you are logged in to be able to take that screenshot, and do the above step.

I have no idea who Lurker is, but eddie13 seems to think you should know.

I would really need to dig hard in order to find any previous old addresses. I haven't much used those wallets since than as most of those wallets were been only used for bounties which were not actually permanent. I don't even have backup from past 4-5 years. But yet, I would try my best to find some oldest addresses and try to find private keys for those.

Now coming back to lurker, he was one of my associate back in the past. I don't know why would that be creating a panic over here. Years passed since we were in last contact and that's why I didn't find replying to this useful. I thought it is nothing to be discussed about.

How can you say these "10" accounts are connected only because they have some common transactions? Wouldn't it be possible that a single person used to buy bounty tokens before they get listed on exchanges & most of the people including me in the past sold some to that individual.

I had seen the thread you mentioned in the last as well but I don't know why have you linked my account in between those accounts.

I HAVE NO RELATION WITH THOSE ACCOUNTS. I even didn't use this forum from the time I was banned.

[mindrust]

I see people are advising OP to start a new account but isn't that ban evasion?

I know you can fool everybody including the mods and the admin if you use a different IP and stay out of trouble but I think nobody should promote this.

It wasn't a one sad mistake. He did it multiple times. Considering that theymos is doing exceptions lately maybe he would give you a 2year sig ban but don't get your hopes too high because these exceptions was made for the guys who didn't over-do stealing and actually contributed to the forum in a positive way.

That's exactly what I mean to say. I don't want to violate any forum rules henceforth and even I would never create a fresh account as it would be a ban evasion.

Also, we as human beings do a lot mistakes and in the past I was not even aware about most or the forum rules. But now, I do respect each and every forum rules & regulations and would also actively contribute to the betterment of the forum. I would spend most of my time in the betterment of the forum if ever I am given another chance.

If not, I just have to go through useful posts as a guest without posting any replies. I would continue using this account to browse posts.

Even a long term signature ban would be OK for me as long as I can contribute to the forum. I would also not launch any of the services here as I did in past(bounty management) so it would keep me way far from earning any kind of earnings from this forum

I have a strong desire to start posting back and considering something which would be beneficial for the forum as well as the members.

I already tried everything possible. I googled regarding the same and even I checked on this forum as well but yet can't find the exact solution to sign a message from blockchain wallet.

that should help you, shouldn't it?
already tried to import the address (you have seed, right?) into electrum and sign it there?

You cannot sign message directly on their site, at least for now. But, if you have backup seeds, just import it to electrum and sign message from there or you can use BIP39 Iancoleman(use it offline) and write your seeds on there and just search your address, import the private key from address that you want to sign to your blockchain wallet via imported address and you will able to sign message from there.

I have never changed my email address on my profile and still I am actively using the email mentioned on my profile.

that might be helpful.

I don't actually have the seed orelse I would have simply imported the address and signed a message from blockchain wallet itself.
The only things I have is: "Wallet-id & password" which gives me access to the blockchain wallet.

I hope the email verification works as it's my last hope perhaps.

This is enough, login to your blockchain wallet, go to Secuity Settings and then Backup Phrase.
Click on the Backup Funds and follow the instructions.
There you gonna get your 12 word seed which you can import in Electrum.
It's easy.

I even made a guide, see below

That post was created one month before you opened this topic. If your account changed owner before getting banned, the address is most likely posted by someone who isn't the original owner.
Account GreatOrchid was created in 2014, you're showing a post from 2019.

Found these 2 also if op's address post might not be considered old enough...

GL and hope the account gets into the correct hands

Thanks for that. I will also try to find private keys for these addresses. These are almost 3+ years old addresses and I pray to god that I find access to those wallets. I'll update here shortly in an hour after digging every possible file for these addresses.
