I want to warn You about some security issues/bug that allow some how to create exact same name of account that already exist. VB support was so lame about it they treated me like some idiot and send me a link to FAQ.

It happened on my forums on 3.8.5. Guy created same account as mine and sent his ICQ number via PM, after that, he tried to get some money for a server.

Now I run 3.8.6 PL1

I couldn't find any strict information about this problem, if there is please send me a link and delete this if not, I hope people will read this and check if they got admin names account doubled or not.

A very quick scan of the vBulletin.com Announcements forum gives this thread.
