When I post with an account, lately it the comp or boards make the post with one of my other accounts.

For example, I'll post with the Jorshal Vuntana account in thread A, sign out, sign in as Hara Kiri and fill out the quick reply box in thread B and hit post, boom, it's posted with the Jorshal Vuntana account.

Is there something I'm doing wrong here or may it just be the comp or even the boards?

Thanks in advance for any help.

This could be due to several reasons.

Since we have three urls (http://70.84.206.247/, www.swforums.net, www.sw-fans.net), you can be logged into three different accounts at once. Try watching the url in your browser's address bar when you're browsing the board to make sure that it's not switching between the three.

Following links from other posters can cause this problem, since not everyone here is accessing the site through the same url. For example: I might post a link which looks like http://www.swforums.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=xxxx, while someone else might post a link which looks like http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=xxxx.

If you're still having problems, and you're certain that you're staying on the same url the entire time, then try the following:

Close all of your browser windows, including this one. Click on your Windows Start Menu >> Control Panel >> Internet Options. Under the "General" tab, use the option there to "Delete Cookies". You'll need to log in again when you return to the board, but that should fix the problem.

Actually, we have 5 different URLs, the ones you mentioned, and then http://swforums.net and http://sw-fans.net. So one could be signed into five accounts at once, which is what I do all the time with my tabbed browsing. >D

ok then, I'll keep an eye on what the browser is doing and hopefully that might solve the issue. Thanks.
