Man, this is how rumours and panic get started.Yes, there was someone previously posting with a fake account with a name similar to Silk Road.However, the thread starter in this case is in fact the real Silk Road administrators account, and he neglected to sign his post. You'll note if you search the threadstarters post history he's had numerous properly PGP signed posts since then.Generally speaking, it's only important that mission critical posts are signed - like when we're changing URLs without any notice. A thread such as this saying there are issues on the site and they're being worked on may not have rated as critical enough for SR to sign it; and there is also the small but distinct possibility that being human, he forgot this time.It's nothing to get all our panties up in a bunch about, but SR should make it best practices to sign all his posts, all the time, to avoid any doubt.
