AB Ed, could you please figure out a way to prevent people registering with EXACTLY the same name as someone else?
My username is georgit79, and there has been a geogit79, but now there is another georgit79 who isn't me! And he/she is following me all around the site and basically taking the pi**. Other members are going to believe that this is me and I'm not terribly happy about it.

I'm guessing it's pompey as they're all in Body And Soul and that's all he ever posts in. Not that AB will be able to tell though.

I'm just letting them carry on, the real me is still here. I can't be bothered giving them what they want. It's Friday afternoon I'm looking forward to getting down the pub and actually finding it quite amusing. Matbe I'm the only one.

I'm waiting for a parcel to arrive, it should have been here hours ago. Then i'm heading off down the local to drink my sorrow away.

The best way to deal with this is to report all hoax posters via the report button rather than here. Remember, he/ she/ it will be reading this thread and enjoying his/ her/ its moment in the spotlight. Report & ignore, that's my advice.

Not the idea answer, but may be changing usernames would help and confuse the 2/3 clones.

I don't think it's Pompey at all.  He always posts in Body and Soul, but he has never had any tendency to be offensive,  I hope I am right.

I don't think it's Pompey either- the poor lad doesn't have it in him!

Sorry ICEMANSAV, it wasn't me...I don't go after taken men, unfortunately!
