LOGGING OUT AND THEN BACK IN AGAIN MIGHT FIX IT - SAW THIS ON ANOTHER THREAD

Oblomov · 13/07/2011 10:45

Non-basingstoke. Please log off and on again and see what happens. I have reported it to MNHQ. I dare say I am not alone.

ShoutyHamster · 13/07/2011 10:48

Me too. I suddenly morphed into CollieAndPup and then went back. Sorry CAP for the non-YOU post!

shuckleberryfinn · 13/07/2011 10:56

This is going to get confusing!

IDrinkFromTheirSkulls · 13/07/2011 11:03

rainbowtoenails · 13/07/2011 11:14

Yes! Yes! Back to normal now. Basingstoke- sorry for all the stress!
I really hope mnhq get to the bottom of this and give us an explanation and apology. I think im going to create a new account after this- really dont want someone to be able to hack into my mn history.

AliGregoryTheAllegory · 13/07/2011 11:17

Someone should put this and the other thread together....

basingstoke · 13/07/2011 11:17

Phew - I have bombarded MNHQ with reported posts on our behalf Blush

mummylin2495 · 13/07/2011 11:18

HelenMumsnet · 13/07/2011 11:41

Hello. Huge apologies about this - should all be fixed now.

BitOfFun · 13/07/2011 11:46

Why did it happen, Helen?

OvO · 13/07/2011 11:49

Aww I missed it. I wanted to be someone interesting and witty. Sad

AliGregoryTheAllegory · 13/07/2011 11:49

I would love to know if it was a technical error or a hack Grin

silverfrog · 13/07/2011 11:49

how many posters accounts were accessed by other people?

sue52 · 13/07/2011 11:52
