    Log-ins are correct, but the displayed names don’t match the log-in. This is a software flaw and should be easy to fix. The table that links accounts to display names is apprently juggled by a fixed amount (since each account gets the same “wrong” display time each time – showing it isn’t a random error).

    This is unlikely to be caused by a hacker

    It’s not a software flaw, it’s a deliberate prank by a mod in honor of Purim.

    So Person posting whose name comes up as oomis (that is I), are you really akuperman or yet a third entity?

    Posted by the real oomis, currently aka akuperman

    It isn’t a broken index table but rather a newly installed algorithm developed by Google that reads everyone’s historical posts and determines which posters share the same views as another and then automatically swaps their identities.

    Clearly akuperma and oomis have shared views in the same ideological spectrum.

    Is it also a purim prank that I cannot log in at all today as oomis? It was only by accident that I was able to access the site to send you this post. I enjoy a good joke, but this is not fun anymore. If it’s a web issue, can you please fix it?
