albacore Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I notified Admin about this but I am noticing again a few times that names associated with posts are changing to other names. they when I hit refresh they are correct (or what I assume is correct) again. Mine changed while looking through a thread I was on from "albacore" to "yellow fin" the back again. They do both happen to be tuna names but WTF?? I have noticed this with a couple other user names here as well today. Very wierd ..... and a little disturbing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberball50 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Is it possible you were translating a page at the time... possibly using the 'Translate to English' function of Chrome. Albacore translated from French to English is yellowfin. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albacore translated from French to English is yellowfin. :) Yes that is possible - and makes perfect sense! I use the translation quite often and have never noticed it do that before. Good diagnosis!

TBG 150 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Chrome has a built in program that if you right click, you get an option to 'Translate to English', or whatever other language that you want. I ASSume it's Google Translate, but it doesn't change the names of anyone. I'm wondering if it's a Windoze translator or some other that is the cause of that happening.
