Default Help In Correcting Wrong Info On My "Friends" Page

Noticed a week or so ago that my "Friends" page 2 (of my Profile) has the wrong forum member name (instead of mine) on it. I've sent a message through the forum's "contact" and I had also sent a pm to a mod. Haven't heard anything back so far and the problem has not been corrected either. Is there any other way to correct it?

Send a PM to Savewave. He has the contacts to the team to make sure the issue is known about.

I clicked on your profile and seen you have 17 friends. Page one shows friends 1-10. Clicking on page 2 results in the message that you have not made any friends, yet.While not the same result as you seen, there clearly is a bug.

Exactly JT. It shows GOTVETT on my page 2 and not GotVett? (which is myself). Easy mistake but I suspect just a simple error. I'll do what you sugest and contact Savewave. Thanks for your input.

You are absolutely correct, my mistake. I didn't realize there was two users with a similar name (GOTVETT and GotVett?). This looks like an issue with the vBSEO product, which rewrites links, but that is just an initial guess.

Savewave will know what to do and make sure the team is aware of the technical issue.

Just pm'd Savewave and I'm sure he can get it corrected, as you've said.

The IB tech team is aware of the issue and are studying how to do the fix.

Apparently it's more complicated than it appears on the surface and the fix has the potential of causing more problems than it solves if it isn't done right.

My understanding that this affects those who have characters in their user IDs other than alpha-numeric characters.
