Something screwy is afoot. I recently got my invitation to Careers. Happy, I raced to the site to fill out my profile. Somehow I seem to have two accounts on there (one is linked to my regular StackExchange account, and the other seems to be a newly created or funky linked account. I am using both my gmail account and my OpenID.com to authenticate.
Account 1:
- Original StackExchange Account
- Uses OpenID and a Google Account (Not GMail) but is defunct
Account 2:
- New account that apparently got created when I used my GMail (!!! should have known better) account after clicking the invitation link
- Uses GMail
- Has fledgling profile filled out
What happens
When logged into Account 1, I remove the OpenID auth. Logout...
Logged into Account 2, I go to Add OpenID, and attempt to add my OpenID. It appears to work! But upon clicking on Profile, I get the "Request an invite" page, and I click on my name and find that I have been silently signed into Account 1! Also, my OpenID is once again attributed to Account 1.
Methinks I broke something when I accidentally used an OpenID that was not (currently) part of my SE profile. I have since added it, but the damage is done. Any help from an Admin?
