Makuta DUSt Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 When I visit this site, it always signs me up as someone called Boginator. It's not that aggravating, but can someone please explain why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katuko Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) Only thing I can think of is that someone with that username has logged on via your computer and then ticked the "remember me" box.You could try clearing your cache/saved passwords and then refresh the site to see if that helps.

Makuta DUSt Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 No one else in my house goes on BZPower though, nor have they ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 You mean this account?It's entirely possible there's an error in the BZP database that's mistaking you for this account, if clearing both cookies and cache does not work. avatar by Lady Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infrared Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) You mean this account?It's entirely possible there's an error in the BZP database that's mistaking you for this account, if clearing both cookies and cache does not work.Interestingly, it appears as if BZPower claims that Boginator has visited since March 31, 2011, which might mean that this is a server error.Have you tried using another browser? It might be inconvenient, but cookies shouldn't transfer over to another browser.

You just lost the game Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) It could be possible that you both joined at the exact time and then they were confused as one.Either that, or simple system error.

iPenguin Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) Wait, it lets you actually use his account? So if you wanted to, you could post using his account? That's more than a little "server error". That's quite big.It might be that the two of you share the same password and have a similar username, and that a typo in the username lets you log into his account. Anyways, try changing your password and see if it helps.If that doesn't help, the reason might be due to a bug. Hopefully it's an isolated incident.EDIT: I did a quick google search, and I couldn't find anything too useful on the subject. I think if anyone finds anything, they should post it or something.

However I don't like to be rude and post something on another person's account, so I just sign in as Anon: Toa of Sci-Fi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Kurahk Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) You said it signs you into his account when you visit the site? So you are able to sign in as yourself when you use the login, but when you get to this site it automatically logs you in as this other user?-SK Edited February 10, 2012 by Shadow Kurahk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iPenguin Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Is it the situation that when you enter your username and password, you are logged into his account? Or is it that his username and password is automatically filled out when select the "sign in" button? Majhost sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dralcax Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Interesting... I think somehow, the cookies got placed on the wrong computer, so when Boginater hit Remember Me, this occured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riglax Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Try deactivating 'Remember Me' next time you properly Log in. It should fix the issue, although you have to manually log in - which you are doing now anyway, so it's a no bummer.
