FlyDave Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 In the past I have found other people posting under my login as well as inadvertantly being logged in as another user on MooneySpace. This is rather un-nerving as other people's posts, comments and opinions appear to come from me (and vise-versa). The latest is the an excellent post in the "201 vs. 231" thread that is listed as written by JimR but sure doesn't sound like JimR's history to me (signed by Randy) - Please correct me if I'm wrong JimR!! EVERYONE PLEASE: When you open the MooneySpace.com web page, look at the top right of your screen and verify your login name. If you are not logged in with your login name, please log out immediately and log in as yourself. DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THAT PERSON'S PROFILE as you will only cause indigestion for everyone involved!! Craig - I PM'ed you yesterday on this. Please let me know if I can do anything to assist in troubleshooting this. Quote
danb35 Posted May 5, 2010 Report Posted May 5, 2010 Seconded--when I dropped by Mooneyspace this morning, I was logged in (and inadvertently posted) as someone else. Seems like a fairly significant bug to me. Quote

Mooney13 Posted June 11, 2010 Report Posted June 11, 2010 I was just log'd in as someone else today... I did'nt get a chance to see who it was (unfortunately) but something is still off a little....just signed out and got back on my own user name.... Quote
Jerry 5TJ Posted September 6, 2010 Report Posted September 6, 2010 It just happened to me -- I brought up MooneySpace from my favorites list. I posted a comment and then noticed, hey, that's not me. Logged out and then back in successfully "as myself." Sorry about that, Lahso. Quote
Magnum Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 This isn't me!!! Sorry "Magnum" I have no idea how this happened!!! Quote
acronut Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Now this is me... This is a serous issue. I'm definitely reconsidering the security of this site Quote
danb35 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Is anybody even paying attention to this? This thread's been open for almost a year, and it's safe to say the problem predates the thread, but it doesn't seem that anything's been done about it. Yeah, yeah, I know, it's a free site. But none of the other free web forums I've seen have this problem. Quote
carusoam Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 "Is anybody even paying attention to this?" - Danb35 Dan and Kendal, Frustrated? Send requests, recommendations and extra resources to Craig. You can find him pretty much at the top of the members list. He does listen. He IS busy.... I had a short email exchange with him last week. He is hopeful to work on some updates...this year? DanB, You live here, Do you have over 200 posts on the other free sites? Please keep in mind that MooneySpace is an incredible resource you cannot find anywhere else. It is free, it has no advertisements, it has no moderator, as such it has no support. If it were to dissapear overnight there would be many dissapointed Mooney enthusiasts. I understand your dissapointment. Let's aim our collective creativity, if we can, towards Craig to see if we can some-how get the resources required to support the developments and fixes you have in mind. Long known and accpeted issues: Login identity issue, classifieds, spell check, cut and paste from outside sources, mislabeled buttons, picture support, different browsers, the list goes on.... In the meantime, I am happy to have met you and shared our common knowlege with you and others such as..People from the Mooney plant, Electronics International, Aspen Electronics, Halo, mechanics, builders, paint shops, MSCs, Professional pilots, engineers, lawyers, instructors, doctors, early adopters, classic keepers, Ambassadors, beginners and experienced alike... Just wanted to share my thoughts. MooneySpace is a gift horse.... Best regards, -a- Quote
fantom Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 It's an minor annoyance, and FAR from a "serious issue" IMO. Thanks to Craig for both developing and hosting this site, asking nothing in return. Quote
Piloto Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 Why some members have an "unknown sex" symbol below the name? José Quote
acronut Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 I really do appreciate the site it's a great resource. I'm just pretty ignorant with this computer security stuff. It just seems like I pulled his info from his compter some how and I don't like the thought of someone gettin my stuff from my computer. I've used hundreds of online forums and never seen this happen before. I assumed thats why things are password protected but if you don't need a password or it downloads someone elses password it just concerns me. Sorry if I sounded ungrateful I really do appreciate the use of this site. Kendal Quote
flyboy0681 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 I reported this problem about a week ago as well. When I first discovered it I had logged off and then a few days later it started happening again. Quote

flyboy0681 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 Damned software developers (of which I am one of them). Quote
FlyDave Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Posted March 23, 2011 I noticed an initial post about the "Garmin Magic" announcement by 201-FLYER then a response from 201-FLYER. So I looked at the Forums screen to see how many logins were listes as 201-FLYER and there are 6. Please see the attached image below. Craig - can you look into getting this issue rectified? Is there anything I or someone else more SW/Server oriented can help you with? Thanks Dave (I am logged in as FlyDave and I AM FlyDave) Quote
flyboy0681 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Old bug in the software that's never been addressed. Quote
FAST FLIGHT OPTIONS LLC Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Now I'm wondering if this is really me? Quote
Hank Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Hmmm, I've never had a problem. Sure to happen to me now, though. :-) Quote
flight2000 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 I've had it happen three or four times in the last week, although I never posted under the others profiles and now just make it a habit to check when I first jump onboard. Quote
fantom Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 I think it has something to do with how we sign on, so it may only be "a bug" in a perfect world. Quote
Lionudakis Posted April 4, 2011 Report Posted April 4, 2011 I was overnighting out of town and logged in and it logged me in as FLYDAVE, wierd. I didnt realize it till I went to the PM box and had several messages. I check it now. Quote
leesh Posted April 5, 2011 Report Posted April 5, 2011 This has happened to me a couple of times. I've worked with websites like this that are based on 'content management' software (Joomla, Droopal,etc.), and there should be a fix from the vendor. It may be as easy as installing the latest update, but they don't show the credits of what software package they're using for this site. Quote
