This should be moved to Meta, there you have more exposure and it's the proper section for those requests/questions.
You will find the move button in the lower left corner.
Good luck.

You need to prove that you own the account, by signing a message using an address used on your hacked account.

If he/she no longer has access to the account, then they can not sign the address linked to the account. It could only have been done when they were actively in control of the account. Which if they did he would have to follow the instruction in the link already provided on the first comment.

You sign the message using the bitcoin address affiliated with your account, not with the bitcointalk account itself. Or did I misunderstand what you're trying to say here?

Yes, I have the very same question Cheesy I understood the Bitcoin one, and I hope it's the answer (otherwise it wouldn't be a feasible way to recover access to your account I think).

This is cool! I didn't know there was that way to recover the accounts. I hope I never lose it, but I'm quite more relaxed to know that it won't be lost forever if I can sign a transaction with an address that I've proven to be the owner of.

assistance there.

Gloverwrt, I understand that they're talking about signing with a Bitcoin address, it's obvious that if you lost access to your account you won't be able to do anything from it. I think it's that way because I'm not used to "signing" anything with an "email address", but now you created the doubt on me Cheesy

And also this thread belongs in Meta, so OP you could kindly move it using the option at the bottom left.
You'd get more assistance there.
