Mysterious posts under my name

[Rand Al'Tor]

Has this happened to anyone before? I saw a post today under my name, that I don't remember making. I changed my password to be sure.

It's the 'The Cubans seem to think he's allright' post in the Cuba thread.

Ask Ming or Markos to check the IP on the post, then go see your neurologist.

Hmm, multiple Rands, eh?

Sounds quite odd, but also seems unlikely.

[Ming]

I checked the IP addresses... the IP for the post we know is you, matches up to the IP for the post from this thread.

The IP for the post that is in question... IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
(not even close).... Hmmmmmm.... do you post from multiple locations?

[Lefty Scaevola]

You have go back a check some older posts, otherwise we will not know which rand is the imposter.

Mmmm, I have a feeling that there are some good jokes to be had here ... but I better say that it was me that made the post Rand can't remember making.

I was a bit surprised when it came out with his avatar beside it.

I mostly post from my computer at work but this time used the machine at home. Rand and one of his mates stayed with me when they came over to London recently and I guess Rand used the machine to post and left a cookie or some such thing implanted in it which now signs up using his password.

Getting rid of it will challenge my (pathetic) level of PC literacy (and I may yet think of some thouroughly scurilous use to make of the situation ) but eventually no doubt I'll manage it.

Now if meanwhiloe my monicker has started ppearing all over Newsmax I'LL SUE.

PS I'm enjoying MM7 by the way Rand. Thanks.
