Okay, explain this.
Earlier today I rebooted my computer, so I had to sign in here again. I did so and after two posts, I notice my avatar was missing, my PMs were all gone, my post count was 2, etc. Then I realized I had mistakenly put a period after the Mr in my user name. I understood everything then, and re-signed in correctly.
What I don't understand is if I effectively created a new account, how come all I had to do was a simple sign in, and why did my password work? |

What does it say under Join Date. Maybe you accidentally set up that "wrong named" account and forgot about it.

I think you already had a second account from a prior time when you may have signed up using a period. You never used this other account so it didn’t have any avatar or posts.
P.S. Yep. Just checked. There is a MrPeabody and a Mr.Peabody account that both exist. |

Of course. Now the only mystery is that account shows a post count of 2 but a search of all posts only shows the one I made this morning.
Anyway, if a Moderator wants to close that account, I'm all for it. |

I think I might have this figured out. I was trying out a new Chromebook that the wife had bought me and I think I remember trying to sign in here on it. I quickly decided I didn't like it and my nephew needed it for school so I gave it to him. I can't be sure of the exact date, but I think it might have been around that time. At least I had the sense to log out of it. It was the middle of the day, so I was sober, but the whole episode was so brief and long ago I forgot about it.
