I searched 'secretside' and it came up with two users called secret side but both with different eggs with the same names and different levels.

@xxebonyxx I don't have a solution but try clicking on the coves.

I can't be bothered to screenshot but you'll see what I mean when you click on both of them.

@Meteoroid

Looks like there's some sort of error in the coding ("PHP Error", line numbers 27, 41 and 54).

Their featureds are duplicates as well: purrpurrla the Macaw and purrpurrla the Crabbert. (Although I did have a duplicate bug earlier: http://eggcave.com/forums/topic/27686)
Also, the creatures seem to be stolen right after each other (look at their ID).

Ok that is crazy weird. Someone made something explode. o.O I'll bring this to Ian's attention.

@orderedchaos
didn;t this happen before with like someone called @savingeggs O.o Funny thing I kind of knew both of the savings

EDIT- I TRIED CLICKING AND THIS WEIRD THINGY CAME LIKE WEIRD.....................

@chowchow2012 Nope that was a different situation, someone was impersonating someone else to scam people.

After checking, there is only one @secretside account. Some how they managed to have their first steal get affected by the duplicate bug, which then put both creatures as their featured. That is what seems to be causing their page to break like that.

weird... O-O

@orderedchaos Would it be possible to ask Ian to try fixing these duplicate bugs?

I'm not sure what happened with the 2 same Tasmas thing (I think @poppiloveslabs re-named one of them). I'm pretty sure there was a duplicate glitch before (where you could get duplicates at will by spam-clicking the "Steal Egg" button) but that was fixed.

Also, when I visit @secretside's account, all these "PHP error" boxes come up...

(there are a lot more of these, I'd be happy to post all of them but I can't be bothered at the moment xD)

I've been able to fix this by renaming one of the accounts to secretside2. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

It's likely that the duplication accidentally happened during registration. It's likely that the user hit the Register button multiple times and caused two successful requests to create a new account to go through. This is also possible if the server lagged a bit and didn't give a response (goes through twice).

I'm going to take a look at the registration process to make sure that creating duplicates (with server lag or multiple Submit button hits) isn't possible.

Thanks!
