Stolen Screenname | Arthritis Information

Share
 

I am leaving the forum. After I read that someone is posting as me on the forum, plus the attacks I have been receiving, I have decided to leave the forum. I hope you all have a nice, pain-free life. I have found this place to be a comfortable place for the past two years. I hope you give others the same peace. I will check in occasionally to make sure Lev is keeping you all in check! haha.

Bye. Don't leave stay  here were you feel comforable. How can someone steal your screen name for the god sake what next. You stay and give them the boot. LOL How can it be possible to steal your name. You find out who it is and jack there butts up. Take care okay but don't leave we all love you here. Joan angel582008-10-24 16:18:36is it possible to steal someones screen name here?Don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya.....How does someone steal anothers screen name?  Geez, such drama.  You will be back, because you won't have anyone to fight with and you will want to see how many people BEG you to stay.  Those to start posts saying they are leaving don't ever go.  Darn it!!

Um, it's possible to crack a password and take over an account... duh, that's such a no-brainer.  Happens all the time.

AchingAudrey2008-11-06 19:31:47AA, why are you so angry and rude? I'm not angry at all, I'm in a wonderful mood :)  And only rude to those who are rude to me, sorry, but that's the way it is.Hi   AA I have a screen name like youHoney-
 
I wish you well and I hope you can stay.

I spit out my Diet Pepsi!!!!
 
Honey...
 
make you password very difficult... using caps and lower case and numbers.. and don't spell anything..  then no one will be able to guess it and sign on as you....
 
dont' leave... 
people dont realize what difference one little space makes in a name
OH MY....Not sure what to think.People have been cracking passwords ever since passwords have been around.  Your password is like the combination to a safe.  You can't guarantee that someone else won't be able to guess it, but you can greatly reduce the probability of that happening by choosing a strong password.  The best safe in the world is useless if you leave the combination set at the factory default... likewise, a site can have awesome encryption but if you choose a simple password, you make it very easy for someone to crack your account. names appear the same but you dont have to be the sameamazing
well doob I'm glad you cleared that up for me- old dopey wannabe was like duh what? How'd she do that? [QUOTE=Phat girl2]names appear the same but you dont have to be the same[/QUOTE]

"Phatgirl2" and "Phat girl2" appear similar; they do not appear the same.
Honey, I'm sorry to hear that you are leaving! I hope you will reconsider. You know that every so often we get some new folks on here who just show up to cause problems, and some old ones who get a bug up their butt for some reason and decide that there are certain people they're going to start picking at. I don't understand why.
We really can help one another when we stop being petty long enough to remember why we are here to begin with.
None of us is perfect. I wish we could just learn to respond when we have something that might be helpful or comforting to someone and refrain from posting when we just want to stir up a fight. Find another forum for that. These people are suffering enough. Do we really want to make everyone more miserable? Does it make some people feel better to berate others?
I hate it when things get like this again!! New people sign on looking for help and guidance and when they see all this infighting, I'm sure they go running the other way.
 
I understand, Honey, why you feel you must leave, but you will certainly be missed! Please try back in a while and see if things have calmed down.
Much love, Nini
Boy I am not very observant- also refuse to believe I need reading glasses...Honey,
 
I honestly don't know what happened.  I've missed a lot of posts lately because it seems most of them end up in nothing but childish bickering and nitpicking, just like this one has.  I just stop reading when they ramble on.
 
In any case, don't leave.  I enjoy reading your posts. 
 
 

Jasmine,

You let the cat out of the bag [QUOTE=Aching Audrey]

Jasmine,

[QUOTE=wanttobeRAfree]No - just one dopey wannabe....[QUOTE=Phat girl2]names appear the same but you dont have to be the same[/QUOTE]
 
I'm so flattered that someone wants to be ME
Someone has WAY too much time on their hands
The ONE and ONLY Phatgirl2
So does RA cause multiple personality disorder?  Sure seems a lot of people on here have multiple identities!
 
I think I will stick with my one identity, and if I put my foot in it, I'll wipe it off and keep on going!
 
 
 
 
Edited for one of my many typos!
Hillhoney2008-10-25 15:38:22Hillhoney - the combo of RA, this forum, powerful drugs and pain killers, and a tense time for everyone regarding the American election, money, war, countries, financial market, i.e. STRESS, which sets us off,  allows for the regular multiples to rapidly mutate.  yall did notice the spaces in the 2 names right? the one between the 2 parts of aching audreys and Phatgirls?

You can also tell by the number of posts the "person" has.  That is how we knew Honey actually posted the first post.  Someone who is creating a look a like only has 1-2 posts.  You can also research the person's posts and see what they  have posted.  Upon first glance, it looks like the same person, but is different.
 
Phatgirl,
I'm not worried about it in the least...IT JUST SHOWS HOW IMMATURE PEOPLE REALLY ARE.

I hope Honey is doing O.K.I am still in shock that this happened. I hope Honey checks back.me too, Jan Lucinda... me too.Actually, Honey was often very rude so I don't mind if she doesn't come back.

But stealing screen names has been the death knoll of many forums. Although here you can't really steal them, as has been pointed out, just get something similiar. I mean, was Honey's ever actually stolen?[QUOTE=Gimpy-a-gogo]Actually, Honey was often very rude so I don't mind if she doesn't come back.

No, it wasn't ever stolen.  She started some sh*t that she couldn't finish, then cried fowl.  (Bird girrl
 

She told me someone else was posting under her name, apparently had guessed her password as Jas pointed out.  Sick, really sick.
