Be careful, my Yahoo identity was stolen here...

After a day of dealing with the new Yahoo board I decided to register here and low and behold I found that my Yahoo ID "jtinformed" had already been taken by someone else. Consequently, I was forced to pick another ID, formerlyjt which I will use on this board. However, I have been trying to spend less time on any of the boards so you will seldom see posts from the real me. Don't know what this individuals motive was for stealing my ID but wanted everyone to be aware of the situation. Regards,JT

Could be that the stupid impostors on the old Yahoo board are robbing established usernames.

If they are taking the names of well known posters their style or lack off will expose them. The moderator should deal with it if it's a problem. At least only one I.D. per e-mail address is allowed here which is a very good thing.

Fred, I was also wondering how many other ID's were stolen. Reminds me of the early internet days when people would register/buy names and subsequently sell them to businesses etc for a much higher cost. BTW, are you expecting a good week for Elan with the AD conference in Madrid and the Ty launch? Regards,JT
