how I got it back is a strange story that no one would believe.
Do tell!
Did you already delete all posts you didn't make?
Okay I'm going to tell it.
So I was aware that my account was stolen for a while, I didn't bother trying to get it back at first until I realized how profitable these bounty campaigns are. I found out that I had to have a privatekey of a bitcoin wallet posted on the account before. I couldn't find any bitcoin wallets on my account however I found some shitcoins, Kittehcoin for example. However the privatekey of that is on my old computer that I haven't used since 2015/2016 and it broke and I kept procrastinating to repair it.
So I thought of an easier way, I'm just gonna ask my account back. I made a new account and messaged Msile (this account) literally this:
Want my account back

Dear hacker/buyer of account
I'm the creator of this account(Msile) and still have the private keys to get this account back, however you're lucky that I've been too lazy to repair my computer. I'm going to assume that you are a buyer of this account and not the hacker itself. My account had a shitty password that was easily cracked after the 2015 database hack. I'd like to have my account back. I talked to a DT member/Moderator and they told me I could get it negative trust by making a post about it and I could get my account back as long as I have the privatekeys connected to my account, which I have on my old HDD.
Now since you're probably a buyer, I have no intention to fuck you over. I see you're doing a signature campaign and if you're willing to give my account back, you can still get the rewards for that one. If this gets ignored/rejected, I will be motivated to create a post to get Msile negative trust, most likely causing you to not get the reward. After that, I'd have to connect my HDD to get my wallets to get ownership back, which would revert the negative trust.
I hope you do not take this personal, I'd just gladly have my account back.
In case you want a proof if I am really the creator of the account then here is my email which I used to create the account:
[email protected] (which is still in the database). You can send the user info there.
Kind regards,
Creator and former owner of the account Msile
And surprisingly he actually gave it back, changed the email back and gave me a new weird password. If he didn't I'd have probably gotten the motivation to get my HDD working though. The thief was just done with a bounty campaign and probably cared more about receiving the reward than about keeping the account with the chance of it getting negative trust. Before he gave it back though, he deleted all the posts HE had made, resulting in me not being a hero member anymore, then again, when I was hacked I was a senior member too.
