    @Ryan

    I have followed @VEDETTE's mini Merc build for a long time...

    Lately I've noticed a couple of quirky things happening...

    1) One thing was his Screename cycles between two names...VEDETTE and FEATURED...I have witnessed it change while reading his posts...it even changes his likes...back and forth between the 2 names...this time I screen grabbed it...

    See samples below

    :rolleyes:...normal...​

    :rolleyes:...changed...note his like in post above as well...

    2) Second weird thing was some posts are in French and it was cycling to English and back to French...I noticed this a week or so ago but today it was the Screenames only today I believe...

    I was thinking it might be somebody hacking...

    I mentioned it to Vedette and he is curious as to what it is as well...I asked if he was doing it with a feature or something but I don't think so...

    @Ryan I think it is related to a French/English feature on my Stupid phone...I turned it off then turned it on and low and behold the name changes...

    I noticed clicking on his pics is a little spammy too but the Conversion app if that's what it is on this android was likely the culprit...:oops:

    At least it's not a hack...;)

    2 more screen Grabs below highlighting the language switch...I just noted Google on the selector so maybe it's a google chrome app...
