Simple one. This user:
https://getsatisfaction.com/people/mi...

Isn't me:
https://getsatisfaction.com/people/mi...

Despite them stealing my avatar, changing the display name to mine and even changing their username so it is a mis-spelling of mine (I'm pretty sure that, last time I checked, they hadn't done that).

This is unhelpful and potentially misleading, as well as being plain confusing (and if it confused me for a moment...).

I thought I'd flagged this up before but can't find a previous thread on this so presumably I didn't.

It came up in this thread, which was archived because of that doofus, Brad, who still owes us this idea that will change the world as we know it (since that segway thing never panned out, I guess).

Ah ha, that's the one and it gives me their previous username too:
https://getsatisfaction.com/people/co...

Now let's get that super suggestion up and running - I bought a sturdier pair of trousers just in case.

Someone is using my real first and last name and my graduation picture and passing themself off as me. Nothing is getting done about it. I will seek legal action if this continues. That user's IP should be banned for life. Below is the user that is using my identity.

Sorry, can't ban IP as most are no longer static. Mine changes frequently and is alternated with other people in my "smart neighborhood". ( I must admit, not everyone in my neighborhood is necessarily smart.)
