Has this happened to anyone else

[+H2"O" 1]

This started happening to me recently and it's got me confused. Sometimes, when I open a cache page, my avatar will appear at the head of someone else's log where theirs should be. Even more recently, it sometimes appears in place of the picture in the cache page description. I'm not sure if it's something to look into my computer about, or the GC website, but it's a little spooky.

Yes. Today.

Yes!

 

See here: "Moving avatars - a strange, recent phenomenon."

 

It may be slightly contagious. ATM, no known cure other than to refresh the page.

Never noticed it myself. Must be the Halloween Avatar ghosts moving things around.

 

Edit:Of course, now I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

The lackeys won't admit it, but they have been bothered by some folks doing avatar theft lately. I hear they have Snoogans on the job.

It happens all the time on one of our laptops, but not on the other. Could it be an XP vs Vista problem? The Vista machine always gets it right - the little ebook running XP has the ghost avatars show up all the time until it is refreshed or shutdown and reopened. Sometimes the ghost avatar is ours, sometimes it is that of another cacher (but it shows up on the cache page of yet another.) It's really weird. (Might add: it hasn't happened on our android yet.)

Thanks everyone, it's nice to know that we're not alone. It's not really that bothersome, I was just concerned that my computer might be whacking out.

Yes, it has been happening for several days. Also, not just my avatar, but others as well; e.g. suddenly two of my friends show the same avatar.

Sounds like a browser problem...I am using Windows7 with Firefox right now. No such problems.
