I think someone hacked your account for sure. I saw where you posted to my Good Morning thread and I have the email notification but it still hasn't shown up in the thread itself. That was about 1150 EST today. I hope OH gets to the bottom of this. I saw it once before. A lady on the DS board was accused of making a pot-stirring post--it looked like she made it but is was obvious that she didn't write it. They finally said someone had been able to either make an account that looked like her or used her account to post.

You can't be talking about ME, Gina...you said "lady!"  lol  (And I really don't know what happened and all I could do was edit what was here.)

I think I agree with your first idea, it must just happen to people named Sue. lol  I was really thinking back a couple of years ago when someone posted some pretty inflammatory stuff on one of the boards using Karen's avvy.  She swore up and down she didn't write it, and sure enough, it was finally figured out. I want to say it was about the time, or just before, OH started the Rants and Raves board.

Even if you don't call yourself a lady, you are definitely the most interesting person and oh so much fun to read.

 Ud think whoever was  posting  as an impostor would  have enough sense  to uncheck the box  to notify the sender  when someone replied to thei rpost lol !

I don't think she was posting as an imposter because she was surprised too.  She couldn't figure out why her post showed up with my avatar.  OH is still looking into this.  Strange.

LucyCat,
Thanks for the post for the jobs!
I would also hate to think someone would post using my Avatar on a non-christian thread...I am SO a Christian..

Sending prayers right now that this issue is resolved...

I received an email notification responding to a post I supposedly made in the Daily Atheist Devotional.  I didn't post that comment!!  I've sent a notification to OH but can't figure out how someone can post as if they're me?  I did post a comment stating I didn't post the other comment.  I am a practicing Christian and would never have posted what it shows!

I just had the same thing happen...yesterday...except that I'm an atheist who didn't post on the New Jersey WLS board and got a response to "my" post about how happy I am with my band...when in reality, I had that thing yanked out almost six years ago and hated it most of the three years I did have it..so go figure

Maybe there is a gremlin of some sort attacking all the Sue's.

I found out who posted the message because she was trying to find out  where her message went, so I think it was just a super glitch in the system.

I think it was "sun_shyne" or something like that.

It was all odd.

Now I have to go make up a new password and I KNOW I'll never remember it!
