Something is SERIOUSLY wrong about the website's security. It keeps logging me in as other people as well as making people's private messages available to me... I emailed the administrator.. I have no clue if that went thru.

Just happened to me too. I tried to provide feedback to the admin but it kept logging me in as someone else.

Yeah. Something is going on. I have thus far been logged in as Wile, CaptainAwesome, and Spring1onu.

I've been TNB and someone else so far. I'm also getting random messages of invald security tolkens as well. I'm not really doing anything just hitting refresh or trying to open a thread. And for a while I was signed out, and no matter how many times i hit sign in nothing happened.

I showed up logged in as cympreni, but now I'm myself. Weird.

Yeah, I've been logged in as cympreni, Amneris, MoppyT, and Junipero.

(this is nynaeve77, just in case this goes through as yet another poster)

This is happening to me too. I've had several posters names show up, the latest being cympreni and nynaeve. Now it says wild~hair again. It seems like posting doesn't work and I get a security error when someone else's name is showing up. When it's my own name, all works fine.

I am on the website as well.

ETA: One of the names that comes up for me is junipero and I saw someone reported them as a spammer. FWIW.

It's not logging me in as anyone else, but it's being really buggy when I try to submit a reply on a thread. It's as if the page keeps trying to load and refreshing, sort of hard to explain.

I'm on the site, not using the app.

I've been logged in as someone named Junipero (sp?) several times now.. for some reason the name seems familiar..but not a regular name I've seen before.

This is Marah.

I'm logged in as myself, but when I go to my inbox it has me logged in as AmberBrown and the box is filled with pm's. Promise, AmberBrown - I haven't opened any of them.

This is freaky!

ETA: As soon as I posted the above, it had me logged in as Spring1onu. I refreshed the page and I'm me again.

ACK! I just went to my PM box and it has me logged in as Devushka. Absolutely promise I closed it right away and didn't read anything. Hopefully they're just doing some type of site upgrades that has everything freaked out and it's nothing malicious.

I appreciate that Misspam! I've been trying to empty my folders since I first noticed the issues but I can't! I've been a bunch of people too, respecting everyone's privacy.

No problem. I'm hopeful everyone will do the same. This is all pretty freaky. I guess I should go empty my folders as well...

I haven't looked at anyone's PMs, so nobody has to worry about that. At this point I've deleted all of mine in case this is someone's malicious attempt to get information as I have a few posters' personal info.
This is so strange!
