Seeing someone else's posts in my own account?
 

Hi all -

I noticed today that when I look in my profile, I see someone else's info! Looks like a real user, based in the UK and has made many posts. But it's not me. Could this be related to the fact that I requested my username be changed a while back? I am no power-user to fountain of info, but I do enjoy the FT community and hate to have my history wiped out.

I tried the usual cookie clearing, etc. to see if the issue was on my end, but it looks like my account is mixed up with someone else's.

Anyone seen this before?

thanks, Dave

It's the - in your username. Well-known bug.

You can either keep your name and keep this unintentional redirect to another's profile, or you can PM me and request a handle change.

As a software developer, a 'known bug' is a pretty good answer to a tech issue like this. At least it's not some mysterious failure.
Also a software developer, I know it's not always easy to fix bugs regardless of how well they're known :)

I'll go for the name change, thanks!
