You know you could easily recover this account if you have previous trades with someone or you have posted your bitcoin address. You just need to sign the address with a PGP key to BadBear.
Simple as that.
BadBear has said previously that he will not recover any lost accounts. He seems to think it poses too much risk to recover accounts to the incorrect person.Simple as that.
That leaves him with theymos, who has said that account recovery tends to be a low level priority. Plus the fact that candystripes should have access to the account at one point as it was voluntarily given to candystripes, and the fact that the mods do not moderate against scams (which is what this is by candystripes) would lead me to believe that he is not going to get his account back via the forum
He says he won't recover lost accounts who do not have a bitcoin address previously used to sign for to show previous ownership.

I won't be recovering accounts except in special cases.
I'm still doing pretty much the same stuff I always did (I already did several admin type duties such as ban appeals, fulfilling moderator ban requests, etc), with some more minor stuff. Just easier now that I have more information and tools to work with. Theymos is still in charge.
