Well it would be an excuse that a hacker could make 6 months from now as to why they cannot sign a message from the address that the real owner of the account posted 6 months in the past.

Yes, but the point still stands that the hacker can find an excuse anyway, no matter if you sign a message now or not. I would certainly encurage people to sign a message now. If only to get familiar with the process, but it will make no notable difference for the future if you decide not to.

It proves that they are able to sign a message from the address today. It prevents someone coming in 6 months and claiming they were a newbie and posted a mtgox address that they cannot sign from because the exchange controls the private keys, not them directly.

They can also claim their dog ate the harddrive or something more reasonable along those lines. Im not sure what exactly would be gained by that claim. If you are unable to provide a signed message in 6 month with the address you posted here you might as well have not posted it.

before you reply witnessed pls check the message that you are quoting. that post doesnt have a message and its signature so he cant prove that he own that address..

pls put the current date in the message of the signature

I makes no sense to post the address of someone else as it would only allow said someone to regain control over your account. A signed message is also not needed IMHO as this will obviously not increase the credibility of the post, only time will. Lets say I gain access to an account this morning and posted an address a few minutes later. This address will hold less credit over an address that was posted last year.

When signing a message, one should allways include a date, yes.

IMHO MAsterV's message is very generic and might be misused.
