Hmmmm....this gets more and more interesting.

Below is an example of a screen shot of Jim O'Bryan replying back to a Michael Deneen post. Notice that in the "written by" line is Jim's name. Then you see the post from Deneen under the highlighted green. Then you see Jim's response post followed by his tagline.

Now, below is an example of a screen shot of a response from Jim O'Bryan to my post. Instead of it being "written by" Jim, it is still my original post with me as the writer. Notice you do not see my post in a highlighted green section, but you do see the highlighted green box from which was the basis of my response. Then you see Jim's response below my original post, yet still under my "written by" box. The post is finished with my tagline, not Jim's.

I believe that my account has been hacked, I cannot come up with another reason for it to appear this way.

Has Jim O'Bryan been in my account?
Have others been in my account? Others from the Lakewood Observer or outside of it?
How long has this gone on?
Has he been in your account? Have others been in your account?
How many accounts has he, or others at the Lakewood Observer, been in?

Is this acceptable?
Is this moral?
Is this legal?

This is troubling and concerning.

Here is the thread.

I see no difference in anything... (minus names) but no hacking.

Really? The name is the author and would have his tagline. If he hit "reply" to my post then my post would be in a green box (the part that starts "Actually..." And the other differences I mentioned.

He even signed with his dot (.) yet it has my tagline at the bottom.

Dear Lakewood Observer,

Who has access to my account and others? Names, please.

Who are the Admins and others who have access? Names, please.

Thank you for your prompt response.

To clarify - because the description had me scratching my head for a minute too - the thread (and screenshot of thread) looks as if JOB replied to Corey's post as Corey and within Corey's post itself. In other words, it looks like it would if he were logged in as Corey and editing his post. Or a goofy tech glitch. Or ?

It looks like a JOB reply to Corey but not as a (quoted) reply usually appears and not as a logged in JOB.

I noticed that earlier but didn't understand what was going on... I thought maybe Corey meant to quote JOB.
