The last few days I've been seeing a strange thing. When I'm reading in the forums the OP will suddenly be using the picture of one of our regular posters. I've seen it happen with LadyConstanze's picture as well as with SylvereApLeanan's pictures. The first time it happened was with one of the belligerent posters and I thought that perhaps he'd done it out of spite. However, it continues to happen on and off.

I'm not using my normal computer at the moment. This one might have a virus in it as it has acted strange at times. Could a virus be causing this strange thing or could it be a Collarme glitch?

I haven't noticed it, so I'm inclined to say it's the computer you're using.

Someone from the forum emailed me on the other side that they did not like my using their photo, and then emailed me right back that the glitch had fixed itself and to apologize to me.... I am not sure why that happens

Thank you for your replies. It seems that some are having the problem and some are not. At least it's not just me.

I think it's a CM glitch. I see it, do I hit refresh and it goes away. Doesn't happen often, but it happens.

If it's what I experienced, seeing MY avatar picture on a post by someone else, it's a caching problem. I suspect on the CM side. I wasn't able to lose it by clearing my cache, but reloading the page clicking the page number resolved it.

A virus that switches people's avatars around? That's frightening!

I shudder at the thought of people mistaking me for Cucky.

I'll try reloading the page. That's easy enough.
