Has anyone found their responses to questions appearing as comments in forums and blogs?
I googled my screen name and found a lot of my answers and questions appeared as comments on blogs I had never visited. Also, in the forums it appeared as if I was a registered user in that particular forum. Is this how the questions and answers appear if someone (another Y!A user) has Y!A embedded in their particular web site?

No, but I have found other users from Y!A stealing my answers. Just about any question from Y!A appears on a Google search.

I hadn't ever heard of it before. I just googled my name though and I see what you're talking about. Sometimes it's your comments and sometimes its the questions. I wonder if it is what you were thinking, maybe some users blog or message board. Weird.

That's just strange. I don't like it either. What if my questions or answers get on some weird forum or something, it'd look like I was a member when I'm not.
