So, could I get at least a definitive answer from admin/mod??

Should I just abandon the other account and use this one instead?

You've next to zero chance of having it recovered if you don't have an address posted anywhere. Even ones with one aren't getting restored right now.

Is this it: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/franciz-188485     franciz

If so, just forget about it and use this one because it only has seven posts.

I already tried that, it seems I didn't have a question setted.

I think there is no alternative, only an admin or mod should be able to unlock it...

Accounts are blocked if they are inactive for an extended period of time and if they were on the forum at the time of the hack. Resetting your password via the email method will not block your account but resetting it via secret questions will.

I tried the "forgot password" option because when I tried to login it said the account was blocked due to the 2015 hack.
I only tried to login again a few weeks back when I was searching for something and I ended up here.

I was checking my old posts to see when I registered, they were from 2013/2014 when I was mining for a few months.
I still have the cards I mention on those posts and can upload a photo as proof Tongue

Why are you using "forgot password" if you remember the password? I believe using forgot password locks the account, because of a security breach from awhile back. Did you suddenly begin receiving this message one day during regular usage or has it been quite some time since you have accessed the account?

It is bad practice to use the same password everywhere, by the way. Again though, I don't think email access is something admins use as verification of ownership, but I'll let them weigh in on it if need be.

If you cannot prove ownership as outlined in the sticky, then I would consider your account gone. Please link the account if you want staff, or anyone else to look into what can be done.

I remember the password from the old account because it is the same I used everywhere until I installed lastpass.
I have access to the old email, in fact it still is my main personal account.

I registered this new account using gmail, the old account is exactly the same but with hotmail (if mods want to check).
Thanks.

As far as I know there is no way to get your account back in the manner you are speaking. I have heard of there being different circumstances to regain access to an account that you've simply lost the password to as opposed to a hacked account. That being said I can't promise anything. Your best bet might be to post a link to the account, and see what a staff member has to say about it. AFAIK staff can't access your email, though, so not sure if this would be helpful either.

Hi guys, I want to recover my old account.
I read this link https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/recovering-hacked-accounts-or-accounts-with-lost-passwords-497545.
But I don't think I even had an address set in my profile at that time.
Even worst, I don't even remember when I registered.
Even "worster", if I registered in ~2014 I was using cryptsy, and if I registered in ~2011 I was using mtgox Tongue

Is there a way to just send a link to the email and restore the password or something like that??
Thanks!
