Problems with identity changes
Looks like there are some people having issues with their login not being right... and they're appearing as someone else.
I haven't experienced it myself.
Do a search for posts by Lucozade if you want to see some complaints about the issue.
Edit: Look here: https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...threadid=14217
Something to do with new users signing up????

...Also, Torpedo appears to be a new user as this was his first post. Instead of asking for my login/pass it just posted as Torpedo. I logged out and it said, "all cookies have been cleared".

Happened to me too. It was a bit schizophrenic. I wanted to post a reply to a thread and it turns out I was already logged in as the last guy who posted. I deleted my post. I closed explorer, opened up the forum and I was still logged in as someone else. I rebooted and was myself again.
Not good. Some real mischief could be done.

When someone becomes a member (eg: Burke just became one), my session automaticaly switches to their name. I notice before I post - so I logoff and login as me. It's happened about 15 times over a two week period.

Well, it's still happeing, because I am NOT Speed & Trixie.
I just opened this site and was logged in as Speed and Trixie.
I'm not even a registered user on this site.
However, it is a GREAT site. Lots of great information.
I'd register, but who knows who would be using my handle afterwords!!

Yup. Here I am posting for the first time. Except that I'm not HooKook and I've actually been posting since September.
IMHO this is a pretty serious security issue and nothing has been done about it at least since this thread was started, which was about six weeks ago. Hello.
