Did TMAN return?

[MoparMiningLLC]

I saw an account a few days ago "tmanisadiety" which claimed to be TMAN and was wanting to recover their account - from the 3 posts I saw they sure sounded like TMAN of old but then the account was nuked.

Is TMAN banned? or was there evidence that it was not actually TMAN?

Nobody seems to know anything about TMAN after years of inactivity. But that account [1] was never going to be the real TMAN. I think a veteran member, like TMAN should be able to recover his lost account through the known process. I don't know why tmanisadiety got banned, but I guess he was trying to impersonate TMAN to get access to his account without showing real ownership proof. The admins should have nuked him without hesitation.

I wish TMAN is fine, like I wish he will come back to his bitcointalk family.

Looks like a troll who was trying to get some few minutes of fame. There is no record of the TMAN account changing the password according to Bpip which would have been one of the signs pointing to his accounts getting compromised
All he has to do is use the old password or simply change to a new one. As an old member, I am pretty sure he also knows the procedure of recovering the account minus creating an alt account going on to make a stupid first post in Meta.

Is it posts of him got archived? I wish to look does he really sounds like TMAN, or it's cheap copy who wants to get attention. Second option is more likely because it's really hard to repeat TMAN's style. I wish it would be he, but unfortunately, I think it's very unlikely. It's been more than 6 years since he disappeared (damn, time flies so fast) and I think he will never know reasons why he left forum.

I had to go look up the archives, but yeah, it does sound like TMAN.  Although, mimicking TMAN couldn't be that hard; just act like a bitcoiner with tourette's.

Funny enough that the banned account mentioned he has a circumcised penis.  I can confirm TMAN was circumcised. 

Err, umm, he told me so in a PM once.  Yeah, that's it.

There is no way to determine whether it was truly the real TMAN based on just those three posts. Someone could have simply trained an AI on his old posts to make it sound like him.
Imo, those posts are "too much" TMAN, as if someone were trying a bit too hard to sound like him.

I was chatting with someone yesterday that knows TMAN IRL, and he confirmed it was him.

This is exciting news - first KWH now TMAN - we need more historical clarity around here.  Recently I've been accused of having superior investigative skills - I'm glad TMAN can now take back his scam busting crown.

I was thinking now that someone with a rich forum history they will be able to prove to people that communicated privately with them that they are the real person just by sharing personal pm info they have had, but most people have Newbies locked from sending them personal messages anyway.

The other straightforward option will be proving ownership of a bitcoin address used previously. That's the path an older member will likely take except they were being eccentric and trying to make an entrance.

I have visited the archived (deleted) posts of Tmanisadiety, they are sounding so raw, like making the forum look like a place for 18+.

LoyceV occasionally mentions Tman and I have also read his thread of Tman's compilation, I believe he will be one of those to detect if truly Tman is back.

Poetry, by TMAN

I really want this guy to be back.
Please ask that guy to have TMAN reach you so you can help him get his account back. It should not be that hard if he still has access to any of his Bitcoin wallet addresses, which he has posted in this forum. I love his poetry, and I once created an AI-generated song with this poetry. I know ibminer is best when it comes to composing songs, but I tried my best at that time.

Also, I feel like we finally got rid of franky1. He has been inactive for almost a year.

Why was the account banned? Is it for language or for possible impersonation of the user? If it's for former, why wasn't it the case for former user itself who also used to use harsh language?

Also, TIL that, you can send PM to even banned users — I did to check, in case I'd receive an error message, but nah it went through!?: https://talkimg.com/image/UxOHvT

Besides, there is nothing on Bitcointalk profile that says user is banned either.

Edit: May be — everything being zero, zero is the sign that account is nuked.

What comes to your mind if someone tells you "Tman sounds like a bitcoiner with tourette's? It means they don't have a filter! And trust me, if he's to vulgar for you, you'd just have to grow a thick skin cause I'm sure the user doesn't give two fucks. I only heard about TMAN from other users but they seem like a cool personality and it will be great to have them back.

TMAN returning would be a good thing, I hope it's true.

Don't trust, verify!

The archived posts sounded like him but it was very heavy handed for the first few posts of someone returning - then the account was nuked. and with no pw changes - I would think that it should be easy for him to log back in unless he had 2fa on and no longer has the 2fa device?

One post was asking what was necessary to recover.

seeing that someone claims to have spoken to him and confirms begs me to ask then why has he not returned? either on the actual account or as another alt?
