Old account revival

[TheBTCRat]

Hi.

I've been away for a long time and I guess my account was archived.

Is there anyone who can revive it for me. My user and email are the same if that helps.

I'd love to look back at my old posts and see what a knob I was back in the day.

Much appreciated

First of all, move the topic to the Meta section. This is not the place for it. And secondly, what account are we talking about? Write down which account you are talking about. No one will tell you anything without the account name. There are no psychics here.

What was your account?

Did you try the account recovery guides?

Account recoveries are moving again
Recovering hacked/lost accounts
FYI: "ownership change queued"

If you posted your Bitcoin address or Ethereum address in your posts, quoted by some forum members, and now you can sign a message from those addresses, it will be so helpful for your account recovery.

But if you still have access to your email, you can recover your account easily with Forgot my password, and use password reset through email. Did you try it?

If you still have access to the email then i don't think you need to worry since you can just restore your account using the mail to reset your password back and nothing much, except you aren't the real owner of that account or you completely lost access to the email account before you could need additional help to get your restored.

It can be the account is locked. In that case, the email has to be the first email that was used when the account was created. People changes their email address later but I can suggest everyone that you need the first email address to help you to recover your locked account. In the case of hacked and other recovery, it is also important too.

Done.

Since your last login was November 02, 2017, you need to follow this ---> Recovering hacked/lost accounts

If you can still access these addresses^[1], then attach the signature of the message from one of these addresses to the email and the account recovery process will speed up, or sign a message here containing

This is TheBTCRat UID (3600171), I lost access to my old account @Ratters UID (159141) today is January 05, 2024, last bitcoin block hash is .....

Why do you believe that your old account is archived? I don't see anything registered in the Meta Log. What message do you get when you try to log in?

Read this post from theymos:  Recovering hacked/lost accounts

If you get a message similar to "your account is locked"

You should be given an email address in the error message. Send an email there and you will be given further instructions.

[logfiles]

You can still recover your account mate, the most important thing is access to the original email address you used for registering the account. You can write to the team that helps recover accounts using that email address and follow the instructions in the links shared by one of the members, especially "Recovering hacked/lost accounts"

You should be sorted in a couple of weeks or less, unlike some years back where people would have to wait for months or years before even getting a response from the admin.

Snipped

Now that you're already giving information about your old account how could it be revived or you get information on the status of the account, was it that you're banned or you just left it dormant being inactive for long and couldn't remember the login info, but if you have the account username with you then you can possibly search for it and go through it's post history to see for yourself what you have made in the past on your profile.

Thanks All.

I think It was just me getting my user name wrong, its been a long time!

Hopefully I will just be able to log in now as I can see its still active.

Thanks for the help.

[TheBTCRat]

So...

I've not been able to get into my old account. Pretty sure I know the email.

I looked through my own posts and it looks like I/ME stopped posting in 2015. My last post was WTB GPU.

Then the account was dormant until 2017 and most of the posts from that year are in broken English or Russian, I also appear to have a Russian Sig!

I'll bet that around that March 2017 my email address was changed as I have tried to reset it and received no email.

I guess my account got taken over, very strange.

It is not at all strange considering that in the first half of 2015 the forum was hacked and many BTT accounts were compromised after that. If by any chance you were active at that time, this would not have happened because you would have changed your password.

Do you have a staked address? That's the only thing you can prove your ownership with, since I doubt the admins can do anything about the IP address, since it's been a long time since you last logged in with that account.

You have your quoted bitcoin address on the forum.

Bitcoin address: 1NbyAR3YeU1efCqrdsDctZobUEDWazN4y2
Starting posts:  335

Thanks, you've been added.

Do you have access to this address? Can you sign a message this address? If you can, your account can be restored. To do so, check out this topic Recovering hacked/lost accounts and do as it says. In this case, the probability of recovering your account is quite high.

[TheBTCRat]

I'll check when I get home.

It's probs one of my multibit addresses!

[TheBTCRat]

I think 1NbyAR3YeU1efCqrdsDctZobUEDWazN4y2 is an old exchange.

I can see I received from this address to my multibit wallet

I have no idea why I would have set that as a Sig campaign address!

Perhaps it was my first BTC wallet address but that wallet will be long gone i think.

Thanks for the help guys, guess my old account remains dead!

Just checked from ninjastic.space and I noticed only one wallet he has used so far that is associated with that account, the other address was eth address so I don't know if he also has access to both addresses and his post above seems he has no access anymore.

[TheBTCRat]

Hi,

Thanks for checking.

Looks like the ETH one was posted by whoever took my account to get the bounty for my new Russian Sig!

I have never been in ETH as far as I can remember.

I think you can still recover your account if you have access to your main e-mail that you used the register the account on the forum. I don't know if you will get access to your account or not but I still suggest you to try to recover your account from your main e-mail address. The chances are low but still there are some chances.
