There has been some recent activity on the "itsbrad212" forum account (which was linked from the 2010 application), but I would not say this is sufficient confirmation.
I understand your cause for concern, so I'd like to know if there is any reasonable way to confirm my identity?
As mentioned by somebody else in this thread, a lot has changed since 2010, including PGP package signing in pacman. Every TU now has a fingerprint that can eliminate doubt in situations like these, but I wasn't quite around long enough for its universal adoption. My AUR account was seemingly disabled due to inactivity (?), and I'd be hard- pressed to keep a domain name for 8 years.
Do you still have access to your archweb account? If so, you could update that with your GPG key/new email address and post a confirmation email signed with that key to this thread. :D -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
