If my account was hacked would this speed up the process of getting my account back?

It's more of a case-by-case basis actually.

I signed a message already and have been waiting for someone to contact me for over a month now. Undecided

The problem here is that you've used "Strongcoin wallet" to create a message. An admin would have to either:
1) Download an additional wallet.
2) Rely on someone elses ' word' for verification.

Isn't there a Bitcoin address on that account that you could sign a message from?

Recovering hacked/stolen accounts is a very low priority for Theymos. There are accounts that haven't been recovered for over 6 months.

I hope you get your account back.

There's accounts that have never been recovered. Even high-level accounts take a while to be recovered, and the chances of recovering your account are there, but can take up to a year. Good luck.

Can you or anyone else verify my signed message is correct?
The screenshot shows that this address belongs to me from my wallet.
Maybe the reason for it not being resolved back to me is that the signed message is not in a form that is acceptable.
I do not know the process to do this.

It seems that hacked accounts have higher priority than lost accounts (ex. lost passwords) which makes sense, because there's the possibility that the account may be used for scamming. I remember it being mentioned a couple weeks ago here in the Meta section by a user who had his account both hacked, and then later forgot the password to the account after it was recovered. He said that his account was recovered much faster when it was hacked compared to when he lost the password to it.

Well that is not reassuring. Undecided

Generally these things are of low priority and thus sometimes take a lot of time. You should post the signed message here and bump this thread every now and then (weekly is fine). Your PM (if singular) probably got burried.

Here is the 3rd last message I sent to the operator on these cases. The last 2 were asking for an update of 20 days from that date then just yesterday being an entire month without a response they are looking into it:

Hi Theymos,

Was this information suffice to recover my account via a password change request?

Please let me know.

I have not heard back regarding my account status on this matter.
So I am sending you the screenshot of the bitcoin address that is associated to the account in question.

Let me know if you need any further information from me so I can recover my account.
