Why Am I Being Told I've Received Answers To A Question I've Not Posted On Ab ?

[fredfredfredfred]

I visited AB a couple of days ago,just a casual browse through,and posted an answer on the 'food and drink' category.Now I find that I've 'posted' a question on the 'crosswords' section,(even though I KNOW I didn't)and even received an answer !!
Whats going on ??

There are questions appearing under FFFF's profile today though, Ed. Maybe FFDF left his screen open and someone used it?

[AB Editor]

Do you have any other AB users in your home, who may have forgotten to sign you out?

[AB Editor]

Sorry, cross-posted there FF.

Maybe we've just outted a secret AB couple, who didn't know they were!

[fiction-factory]

Hi- just wondered whether this had been explained

[fredfredfredfred]

HAHAHA !!!
I've got a secret 'other half' on AB.
Best laff I've had today.
Ta,fredfredfredfred.

[fiction-factory]

Now how do we know that was really you answering last night, FFFF?

[fredfredfredfred]

In reply to 'fiction factory',
Yes,it's me,fredfredfredfred.really me,at the keyboard,you lucky,lucky pup.
In reply to other users' questions,I'm the only one in my house-hold who has access to my AB profile/log-in.

Hi. You haven't said whether you now remember posting those crossword clues. If you didn't post them then someone must have guessed your password (is it 'password'?) or the techies have to look into a problem of some posts being assigned to the wrong profile. Has Ed responded?

[fredfredfredfred]

Hello 'Fiction factory',
I can tell you with certainty that I have not posted anything on the crossword or puzzle categories.
I don't 'do' crosswords or puzzles.
I do food;science;electrics and electronics,and, if I'm feeling generous,physics and mechanics.
And no,darling,my password is not 'password'.who would choose something so obvious ?
As the situation currently stands,I'm not really too concerned about other people using my name to post answers.
Although I suppose if the submitted answers turn out to be naff,my reputation ,(as yet not substantiated),may be dragged through the mud.We'll see how things pan out.

[fiction-factory]

If someone did use your name they would have to have your password too. Odd isn't it

[fiction-factory]

I can't remember a man calling me 'darling' before.

[fredfredfredfred]

Hello Fiction....

Yes,definitely odd.I'm at a loss as to how this happened.
And sorry,my love,you'll just have to get used to my,er,'unusual' terminology...it's de-rigeur if you deal with me !!
Everybody I know just accepts it,with a smile and a raised eyebrow.

[fiction-factory]

Thanks, duck.
There is usually a simple explanation. If I were you I'd make sure I always log after after using AB and then keep an eye on your profile to see if posts are still appearing that shouldn't be
