I though this was fixed yesterday….

It was… every time we do this it messes with the originals name.

Do what?

There has been someone exploiting a vB glitch making names after admin accounts. And wizzup renames them and bans. But since its a different exploit than invisible char one, vB still links some of the posts together. So my posts get screwed up until the caches reset.


In short: vB Sucks, wasnt me.

yea I was that a week or so ago with the red hobbit and green hobbit right below it on "latest posts" same for wizzup?

wasn't worried since he plans on changing to phpbb

Time to hit the panic button.

I'mma do it!

It's nothing in particular to worry about. vBulletin apparently also uses the usernames to match stuff / rebuild a cache - which is silly; or they don't limit by one result, which is even more silly. Regardless, it's an old vB bug and I don't think it's very harmful, just slightly annoying.
