A mod has been in touch. At least I know I'm not hacked. Yay!
That's great news! Let us know what happens if you get any kind of explanation.
He thinks it had to do with posting at the exact same time the thread was being closed.
Makes the most sense.
Oh wow! What are the chances of that?
I'm glad your account is okay though. I think I would have been running around the house like a mad-woman not knowing what to do.
never a dull moment.
I know.
So weird. Never heard of anything like this before. Makes me a bit wary of Etsy these days when these strange things happen.
I had that happen a few years ago I had a 1 show up for a week or two with nothing attached to it, was very annoying. Evidently it closed as I posted I found out finally.
A few years ago, one of my replies on an OP showed up as a new OP I supposedly started. It was a reply to a reseller, no less. It was only up for a couple of minutes, but good thing it wasn't written in my usual 'you're reselling!' style.
Coulda been worse, OneEye! It could have been a forum report you made that showed up as a forum OP.
You know I would jump in to help up you but I am not the Wizard behind the curtain. Hope it is sorted. Jeez Louise.
I remember once someone was apparently trying to report a thread of mine and made a snotty comment in the reason box and it all went live to the forum with my avi and the bad comment as the title..took a couple hours to get addressed! Never a dull moment...
@OneEyeCatStudio Glad things seem to be OK!
When I saw your request for HELP I immediately had to respond - even though I didn't know if I had to jump in the water, or perform the Heimlich, or round up your cat who was riding your pony, or ??? You know, you have lotta friends here!
Thank you!
I think this forum is a very helpful and supportive place.
Well, you know, unless you're reselling, IP thefting or TVPeeing. Then it's knives out.
