New Friend - Is Something Dodgy?

[Trav33]

I got an email:

Cheryl has successfully added you to their friends list.

Manage your friends:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...gs&id=20264

However when i click the link, it says "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

I click the Friends link, and i dont have any friends at all (lol)

And when i click members, search for members, Cheryl is a new member as of today, and i can't view their profile.

Is something dodgy going on?

[Sl!m]

if you click on ur profile, then click on the friends tab, then click on manage friends, do you see anything?

You can see yourself as a friend on Cheryls profile

Definatly doesnt come up in my list of friends - i guess cause i havent added anyone to my list of friends.

Not sure if SAU is having problems, or my PC.

But when i try to go into my profile, or Cheryl's it comes up Page cannot be displayed - but i refresh, and it comes up. Doesnt affect any forums, just the admin/member stuff, something weird is going on.

I thought there was a bug, because a new user who has not posted, added me as a friend and no-one else... PM time.

PM didnt work:

"The following errors were found

This message can not be sent because the recipient has their personal messenger disabled or they are in a member group not allowed to use the personal messenger.

This personal message has not been sent"

Whats going on????

Yeah these types of problems occur when a users display name is different to their log in name. Cheryl had a different log in name (which means that PMs, Friend etc are the log in name, not the display name).

I have changed her log in name to now be Cheryl as well, so everything should now be ok.

Still can't PM 'Cheryl' to find out who this person is...

"The following errors were found

This message can not be sent because the recipient has their personal messenger disabled or they are in a member group not allowed to use the personal messenger.

This personal message has not been sent"

Any way, no biggie, just wondering what was going on!

[PranK]

it could be that their account is still in 'validating'.

Looks like a spam account anyway to be honest...
