    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?

        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?

              yesterday there was a discussion about friends list in lobby. I commented I had none because of problems here over the years. Today Atari was on my list, the only one because I had none. Did not ask I did not offer. Well removed him and yet again he is back on. Any suggestions to keep him permanently removed?

                Thanks, sakamvari, for fixing this. 🙂

                I only realised what I was being called when I saw the reference to "T####cles" on this page by hovering over the word "G##-gate". I've edited the word for those of a delicate disposition and also not to be banned from this website (I say this because it was apparently thought necessary to censor ThatGuyThere202's use if the word "T####cles")

                I am reminded of a recent article in which a teacher was fired for "lack of professionalism and impaired judgment" (!) for reading an extract from Dawn McMillan's book entitled 'I Need a New B##t!' to 7-year-old and 8-year-old students last week.

                    @terrijay you are as unbalanced as they come. I did not ask admin to solve this but you chase me around to all games in 2 or 3 names nonstop and tell me to solve this myself? Solve your addiction or get some mental health help. You might be nice person if not so needy

                          Does this mean I have been hacked? Both names on my games with all my friends are coming up with another persons name (unknown to me)

                            Lexulous has changed the names of players on my games. I am Tom Frey and I play only with Sylvia Norris. Today BOTH players are "ginas" Can someone explain this event?

                              I just noticed that instead of each person's name on the game and my name, they have all been changed to "ginas". Is this some kind of hack and how do I fix it?

                                Me and the friends I play with have all our names changed to GINAS now. Can't see any changes in my settings. Have reset my faceword password. Sometimes the scores are correct, sometimes they are flipped so the person who is losing has the winning score. What the heck? Are we the only ones?
