AH! Tell me I'm NOT Crazy

lunarsongbird

Have you noticed something like this before?

So yesterday, per usual, TK was being a little "wonky." It's even stranger on my phone. However- on my way home last night- I was checking a post on my phone- and my avatar had changed!

It changed to a hand holding up a premature baby's foot.

I scrolled up and down...and there it was- under my name...the kinda sad picture.
When I refreshed- it was gone.

I told Andrew about it last night- and he said, "Oh- I hope it's not a premonition." Ugh. "Andrew- don't you realize that now I might carry this thought around when I'm pregnant?" Silly SO.

So this morning- I caught the Knot up to it's antics again. But this time I took proof-

This is NOT Nursey's avatar:



Nursey- Do you even like that bouquet?

So am I crazy?! Have you ever seen TK do really weird stuff with avatars? Where in the world did that baby foot even come from?

I've seen TK when all of the picture avatars are gone and replaced with generic cartoons, but I've never seen something like that. Great job getting proof!!

Heh. Spooky.

Yeah, TK does wonky things all the time. Sometimes the usernames themselves appear as something completely different. That always freaks me out...

I had someone else's post show up with my name under it.  It was weird, because in the main board, it showed up with my name, but then when you opened it, it showed the actual poster.  Me thinks TK employs technologically retarded IT people....

That's weird! I've seen it go wonky, like eating posts and spitting them back out a few minutes later, but I've never seen it do THAT!

My facebook app on my phone doesn't update profile picture changes when people make them.  On mother's day people were changing their pics to ones of their mother and posting a status that says "happy mothers day! change your profile pic to one of your mother.." or something like that.  I kept wondering why people weren't changing their pictures.

I've seen SN with other people's avatars.  I agree with Jem that the IT people are mentally challenged or extremely lazy.

Yes, that's happened to me before. I've also seen it claim that my posts were written by someone else... strange stuff.  Good job with the screen shot!

To be honest, I see that mix up all the time. Atleast once a week. I think it is the same thing as the screen name. Someone somewhere has that photo as their avatar.

Ah ha! I caught you again Knot, I caught you again...

Whose Avatar is this? Or cu- did your SO just shave? LOL. Hehe...

Boo to you, Knot, for making me think my baby was going to be premature!

I've seen it be all wonky.  Different pictures appearing in people's siggys, wrong avatar pics, posts mysteriously appearing in a thread, negative times where it tells you when the last post was made...

Yeah, it's awesome.

I've seen it switch avatars around before. Usually, they're just a generic avatar like a ring or cake, but one time it displayed Mutley's avatar as Elle's Harry Potter avatar. I definitely did a double take. I've also seen it show posts as though a different person had made that post. Sometimes TK also displays threads in the incorrect order. I'm pretty sure TK experiences technical difficulties at least once a day.

::Whew:: I'm glad to hear that TK isn't a portal to time travel- and that it's not predicting the future.

What a relief!

cu97tiger

Ha, that is definitely not me. BF has shaved but that's not him! (PS BF only has the goatee about 3 months a year... he grows it out for big races, then shaves it the next day. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I love it because it makes him look like a bada$$ even though he isn't. I hate it because it hurts to kiss him when he has it!)

Yeah - I was once a quite sexy brunet in a bikini...but that never came true...

or did it???

TK goes wacko regularly. As in daily. I don't even notice anymore, although your profile pic switch is a little creepy-tacular.

I really hate it when I mixes up post order. So the OP is half way down the page, and the response is first. I also hate it when it says the wrong person made the post. Those things are just confusing.

TK is weird.

Just an FYI.. Many moons ago, someone copied and pasted someone's info like you did above to prove the point about Nursey and Tiger, and they got told not to. I don't remember if it was by the TK gods, the Mod, or someone else, but TK doesn't like you doing that for some reason that relates to privacy? Basically, I'm not sure why but TK doesn't like when you do it. Just a warning, not trying to be an ass.

lunarsongbird

Oooh...I bet the TK Gods don't like us catching when there are mistakes! I've altered the pictures to take away any private information- hopefully to appease the TK Gods.

And I have the following offer for the TK Gods- as to make them happier-

You're a loon.

No, I'm kidding.  Hehehe.

Bwahahahaha - I just found another for Tiger!




That was her avatar when I looked at the "I'm no longer a Newb" thread.
