I'm not sure why I would see a list for everyone like that.

Must have something to do with my internet service going out again. Maybe a secure government monitoring program keeps screwing up in my area due to incompetence with the local phone company. Having a list of everyone on here would make sense along with all other web sites.

If you're having some Internet connectivity issues (I reserve the right to shoot on sight anyone who says "the Internet is down"), then the CSS file for the page probably failed to load.

CSS provides all the formatting instructions, and without that, you just saw a raw dump of the content of a page that included the typical header info for all posters.

What joc said is correct. All formatting is done in css. The file probably did not load correctly.

Thanks for the answers. I have a lousy internet provider that goes down a lot. That might explain some of the crazy stuff I see sometimes. I was hoping to see tomorrows stock prices but that only happened one time with any accuracy. Computers controlling the stock market must have had a glitch showing me prices one day in advance one time several years ago. Now if I see stock prices or charts with tomorrow's date on it, it's not accurate.

Either that or the FBI is tracking you.
