What the... ?
OK, here's a problem for you... I accessed the 10 Tenths Forum main page, and I saw that the last post in the F1 forum had been made by Lee Janotta. This being a member I was unfamiliar with, I clicked on the name to view the profile. And... up came the profile of J.McClane! Hm... I pressed "Back" and clicked on "Lee Janotta" again. Now I was presented with the profile of Hugh Jarce! Again I pressed "Back", again I clicked on "Lee Janotta"... only to get the profile of Red! Seriously, what's going on... it looks like I was presented with random profiles of forum members!

Were you clicking on the link in the "Last Post" column on the right hand side? The link goes to the profile of the last person to post rather than the profile of named person. If you were looking at a busy forum such as F1 then chances are a new message had been posted between the page displaying and you clicking on the link, in which case Lee Janotta wouldn't have been the last poster any more (J McClaine would have been). As you then clicked on 'back' your browser would have displayed the same cached page without updating it, so you still saw Lee Janotta as the last poster. By this time Hugh Jarse had posted so he was now the last poster and so the link would display his profile.
