Im really confused/worried

[n3wt]

This is weird!

Basically I was on anther site that I post regular and there was a thread on there that said "Google your forum name" and post the result here, its a lil game. Which I did and there in the image search there are pics that ive used in post's on this site. Also under the pics it says N3wt is online and some say im offline, so what is this about? here is a screen print for you to see;



Then I checked the links and on the first page was a link straight to my DVD collection on this site;



Also what I found in the image search is two avatars that fellow MoFoers use and it links to my DVD collection;



So is anyone thinking this is really strange or am I really paranoid for no reason?

Perfectly normal, really -- Google can read all this stuff, since it's all public. I guess the name/word "n3wt" isn't terribly common.

[Harry Lime]

'Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean their not watching you.' That really sucks n3wt, but unfortunately this is the direction society is heading. If you think it's bad now, try and imagine ten years from now. This is why I value privacy, because lately so few do.

[n3wt]

Well thats good to know its put my mind at ease FOR NOW! lol

Cheers

Dude your famous!

[Ðèstîñy]

That's funny. Half the things that pop up with my name, aren't even me. I haven't had a My Space in about 6 months, and I haven't been 33 in about . . . 6 months! :p

What?

[mikeython1]

:laugh:

[king_of_movies_316]

thats awesome. why would you be concernd?

[Harry Lime]

How come when I click on this thread two login pop-ups show for some site called playsona.net? I've tested this a few times and every time this pop-ups and I have to cancel it.

[Harry Lime]

It appears to only happen on this thread, I've tested a few others.

[adidasss]

It happens to me too...weird.

[n3wt]

It is really strange but also quite cool, everyone should try thier username in google and see what pops up lol

[KasperKristensen]

I got nothing. Well, I got something but not me.

[Pedz]

If I use my other username Pedz on toast. If I type Pedz, stuff fro variuos things, pop up, and a link to my profile here etc.

[Pedz]

No iea why the password box is coming up to PLAYSona here, it's another forum we visit,(n3wt and myself) which is primarily a game forum, it's downand they are doing stuff on it, so when you go on there, you get that username/password box. Very odd it's happening on here, unless it's dfrom one of the links posted by n3wt?

[n3wt]

Its very strange I dont get why it is happening, as Pedz said PLAYSona is a gaming forum we post on and I have no idea why it is poping up on here it is indeed very strange. The forum is down as it is being updated at the moment but if anyone wants to join the community we have there your more than welcome it is a fun place very much like MoFo.

[Pedz]

Maybe remove the links in the OP, or keep the address thingy, but not as a link, so pople can can copy and paste it into the browser. That way it shouldn't pop up.

[n3wt]

Im not sure what you mean, I'll pm Yoda see if he has an idea...

[n3wt]

Ive PM'd Yoda about the pop up it is very odd and I have no idea why it is popping up in this site.

[Pedz]

Remove the links from the first post, keep the url there, but not as a link, so instead of having say http://www.movieforums.com (http://www.movieforums.com/community/../) as a link, have it as "movieforums.com" that way, you'd have to copy the url and paste it into the browser.

[spudracer]

I just did my name in Google and a conversation between Yoda and I comes up. As for the Playsona thing, the images, or whatever from the first post need to be removed for that to stop.

[Yoda]

Spud is right; the images in question were behind a since-password-protected directory on another site, which is why it was prompting you to log in. This happens sometimes with images hosted elsewhere. You can avoid it by uploading them to some place like Photobucket, attaching them to your post, etc. :)

[n3wt]

Cheers for sorting it Yoda dude!
