Okay I like never use this account for anything and I found out someone commented on some thing using my account and posted some stuff that I haven't even seen before. Does anyone know a way you can figure out whose been using your account? This sucks >:l

You have 4 IP Addresses associated with your account.

I assume that's you posting from home, from school, from a friend's house, and a relatives. If that's not the case, then why do you have have so many IPs attached to your account, and how can one person fail that hard at securing their account?

Additional. who would seriously want to post something that is relevant to your content from your account other than yourself?

Please don't act like an idiot and try to make a fresh start using a lie.

Tsunami Bomb - The Simple Truth
We could run away
Leave behind anything paper
Not knowing where we're going to stay
When there's no Mondays

You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
When I'm in your arms, I feel safe from harm and sorrow too
You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
But most of all, nothing couldn't be solved when I'm with you

That's ironic, kinda silly when people do these things.

I'm not lying. I found a post on the forums where I commented on something(well this account) that I had never even seen before Unsure whoever it was, acting like a professional. Completely honestly I have only gone on this site from 2 computers. One at my grandma's and this one I'm using now at my house. The reason my ip might be associated with another account is probably because my sister goes on this site too.

The thread I am referring to is this
http://www.spriters-resource.com/communi...p?tid=3156

I never posted that, and my name's not even Scott. Plus I can't make sprites that well.

That thread is from 2008, man.

4 years ago.

If something happened, it's long over. Just change your password and if by some mystical chance someone else accesses your account again, we can deal with it from there.

Edit- I looked into it a bit, and the IP address associated with that thread originated from a member named "Rabid Scotty92". When I try to access this user's profile, it automatically redirects to yours.

I'm guessing something happened in the massive database screwup about a year ago and somehow your profiles were merged or something so it put his posts on your account.

In other words, it's highly unlikely that anyone hijacked your account, but you should probably change your password anyway just to be sure. Just let us know if anything further happens, though I doubt it will.

Edit again- Looking into it a bit further, I'm like 99% sure that the database screwup is completely to blame. You joined in January 2009 (and there are posts to back this up) but the thread from 2008 was made in December of 2008, aka before your join date. Your profiles got merged for some reason, I'm assuming in the database error last year. Considering that Rabid Scotty92 made no posts since that thread 4 years ago, there's really nothing for you to worry about. Whoever he is, I'm sure he's long gone.

That had scared the crap out of me. I'm relieved it wasn't important.

That's... honestly kind of fascinating.

Wow, that looks weird...!!!
I never used any other system or device to post in here... and even if i do, how can someone just do post without my knowing ? When you were constructing your account, where were you ? And secondly, don't be a desperate one, just use the forum whenever you require or you are where you started the account, whether home or school or wherever.

I think you didn't quite understand what was up, Deskol!

But since there's nothing more to be said here anyways, I'll lock up.
