So I got home today and of course breezed through a few of the talkboards I visit and to my horror I see someone else using this name, Canucklehead, on Guardian Talk, which I have lurked/posted around on for the past 5 years(albeit as a different username).
Now, I know I can hardly lay claim to this username but it's very offputting to see someone posting things I don't particularly agree with and certainly wouldn't want to be confused with this other person. Silly as it may seem, it feels like ID theft of a virtual nature, mostly because the topic was political in nature vs. something innocuous like a music/hobby/interest/general insanity type board. I suppose had this 'twin' been posting things I 100% agreed with, I wouldn't have felt so...umm.. violated.
So, has this happened to anyone else here and how did you react when you noticed it?
