    Yesterday I received comments on two of my poems from someone called "poem". Clicking the name of this commenter leads me to this page: http://allpoetry.com/poem/list .

    Odd, I thought...

    So, I clicked on the "Return the favor" link, which brought me to this poem: http://allpoetry.com/poem/5842021 , by the author "poem". Clicking on the "poem" link brings me back to the aforementioned list.

    Who is this mystery commenter?

    Haha, something similar happened to me years ago back when we had a dictionary on AP (I miss that!) and one person took the user name Word... then whoever wanted the dictionary found her page. Now I assume it's the other way around.

    Yep, this same thing has happened to me before also, a couple of times, actually. It weirded me out a little, too!

    its not strange ... it may be Kevin ... its his site ... there is no AN for the writer and that is only possible to do from the administrative level ... I will put the writer on ignore and may receive a notification that I can't pub them on ignore ... that will show me that it is perhaps Kevin ... but then again, perhaps, it is someone else, a sort of disembodied spirit who has escaped from a dew drop or something and is still not quite part of this universe ...

      "Author Notes" doesn't show at all when you post a poem as long as you don't add any. I have lots of poems with no author note showing. But a little poetry spirit escaped from a dew drop is enchanting.

        'tis no mystery, Sir Scott, for I am the board. All these years people have written on me -- I have finally answered to the call to write back.

    I went to boardone's page, no favs, and when I clicked on 'show friends of boardone' I was taken to a listing of my friends.

    Wazzup? It's not I, said the little red hen...

    This seems to be another malfunctioning option - does it work for anyone?

    The user 'Anonymized' has similar issues with their name... gets contest notes, IMs, and all that from anonymized contest entries.

    I actually find it distinctly hilarious... >.> *scratchs my head thinking I should shut up now and just keep giggling*
