Jamie,

On some of my posts where I show my name "Alton", it shows Thomas F. Vice as the user doing the posting.  This happened some time ago, but I am curious how it could.

To see what I am talking about - search the SIP forum by "Posted By" and "Match All Words" then in the Search blank type "Thomas F. Vice".  Of course, do not use the quote marks.

I discovered this today while searching for all of my postings concerning a certain company that has received some negative remarks.  I am wondering if the opposite can happen also.  In other words, is it possible that my name has been posted as the user for comments that I did not write.  I ask this because today I received a phone call from a gentleman that I know quoting things from memory that he thought that I had written.  I did not recognize the quotes.  As a general rule I try to help people - not bad-mouth other people's product.  After the phone call I spent two hours looking at the postings by me for this company but I could not find anything remotely associated with negative remarks.

I see several of my postings under Thomas F. Vice.  Do you thing the opposite can happen also.  Your thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

I would love to have all of my postings so that I could review them but I do not think that is possible.
