Strange message

[ThatGuyThere202]

Hey admins... if anyone is listening... some jokester is hijacking people's names in the lobby and turning them all into "Ginas" or "Testicles." Weird sense of humor, amusing to some I suppose; but pretty irksome to those of us who want to play real games with real people. Can you do something about this ASAP please?

My Lex has also been hijacked by Gina-gate1

Thanks for reporting. I was trying to report as well. So annoying.

@thatguythere202
I am having the same problem

[billyotp]

Someone is hacking accounts and changing names. Earlier it was "testicles"

[lunatick]

@thatguythere202 I am having the same problem. If I click on "view game" the game appears with the correct person I'm playing against. I emailed admin a half hour ago, no answer yet.

@thatguythere202 phew! I'm glad it's not just me.

Yes happening to me, and my games that I am playing with my friends disappeared along with our stats. HELP

[ThatGuyThere202]

@mapmakere thank you

[CaroleM]

Me too, about 13 so far

All the names in played and in progress changed to Ginas.
Also, I cannot email Lexulous as I do not have Outlook. Is this on purpose? Is gmail too odd or do they not wish to hear from us?

Wow, this is bizarre. Looks like someone got into the backend of the site and is messing around. Hopefully doesn't get worse. Early hours in India though.

I just had a look at https://forum.lexulous.com/users and there are a bunch of new 'ginas' signups (many online on the forum right now actually). Definitely something sketchy going on.

OK, as per lobby suggestion, changing your avatar should fix your messed up username.

Re: Gina-gate

Yes, just noticed, it has happened to me in all of my games too

[A Former User]

@thatguythere202 same for myself and group of friends. Started the name thing this evening.

[Jootzy]

Wow, so annoying! I hope it can be fixed soon

My name is Betty and I'm playing about 50 people. Suddenly, both players (myself and the opponent) are named Gina in every single game!! How can I correct this???

[Helgarude]

@dan hope they aren't going thru our emails

[Rebecca Graves]

Suddenly the names of me and my opponent are changed. Both of us are now "Ginas." What the hell is going on???
