Well that explains what to happened to my old account then...Was literally just trying to reset the password for it, had no idea answering the secret question would lock it...

There is already an advisory to not use the secret question here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/psa-accounts-will-be-locked-if-the-secret-question-is-used-to-recover-it-1206977
I think they shoul put it somewhere that anyone can read so everyone will stop using the secret question. I also got my account locked and luckility it took only 2 weeks for me to get my access back.

Thanks,

Hey Cyrus,

I sent a PM on September 28th regarding my hacked/lost account. When you get a chance could you unlock that account please?

thanks,

On September 22nd, 2016 i was not able to log into my account hmblm1245. I attempted to reset my password and which likely locked the account.

Did you try to reset the password using the secret question ? If yes,you're locked out of your account!It's a known bug.

I have since sent of another corrected signed message last week to cyrus, but have not heard anything.

Relax.Since recovering accounts is one of the least priorities,you might have to wait a little longer.Little as in Days,Weeks,Months...no one knows. (depends on your luck,actually)

Is there anyway of knowing if my account is locked/banned or other? I am not sure if i need to do anything else.

Refer the posts above!

Thanks for the update. I think i did try reset using the security question, and then found out that those accounts auto lock after trying. I'll sit tight and check back every week or so. I was also not sure how long it normally takes. I was hoping about a week or so but i guess it could take weeks/months hopefully not years

I sent over my info from this post https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/recovering-hacked-accounts-or-accounts-with-lost-passwords-497545 but screwed up my first attempt (did not put anything in the signed part, doh). I have since sent of another corrected signed message last week to cyrus, but have not heard anything. Is there anyway of knowing if my account is locked/banned or other? I am not sure if i need to do anything else.

[UPDATE]

I assume that the PMID mentioned here "I sent that address to someone in a PM with PM ID#..." would be a "pmesg=" in the URL that is often referenced in email. But also not sure.
