Admins re: littlelip’s lost identity

Zippylip

I have sent emails with this inquiry/request but have not had a reply so I am assuming my emails are not getting through. All of my daughter’s posts (littlelip) have been re-assigned to me. When a search is done for littlelip, all of her posts appear, but with Zippylip as the poster/replier. Please re-assign her posts and replies back to her so that she gets proper credit for her work. Thank you

wondering if that was fallout from the "anonymous poster" heyday.

i could see that happening if all posts from a given IP address were switched to one single user name.

odd though. why you and no one else? would love to see who made the anonymous posts to wess that one night.

Zippylip,

I'm not sure how that happened, but I replaced "Zippylip" with "little_lip" for the posts associated with the "little_lip" account.

The forum saves the user name at the time the post is made regardless of the current name on the account; so, is it possible that the "little_lip" account was recently renamed?

WMK, thank you, much appreciated, Marc
