To save the trouble and bandwidth of starting another thread....can anyone tell me what the heck happened this morning? Just before FR crapped out and went offline, I managed to be logged in as about three different people!!!! And without having to do anything! Everytime I refreshed the Latest Posts page it showed me as someone else.

This is a very bad security glitch, as I could see these people's emails, although I did not read them. Any info on this?

Wow! That's really cool! All I got was bumped off for a while.

I gather the software was being tinkered with and barfed.

Was a software/database related problem. We got it fixed.

Thanks, Jim

Wow, I'm so lucky. I was only ONE other person today, for about ten minutes before the site went down--txrangerette!

It never even occurred to me that I could have checked her freepmail; I was too busy posting "WTF is going on with the screen names, I'm hellinahandcart I tell ya!", and then the whole thing went blooey...just to put your mind at ease, txrangerette...

But now I'm seriously wondering who got to be ME this morning. I hope it was someone who likes me, isn't too nosy, and doesn't talk!
