When in chat rooms I have a different name?

Age is wrong in display in chat rooms. when mousing my name it show wrong age. profile is right!! help?

  • I have edited my profile everywhere i can find, but my display name in a chat room shows an age that is over 20 years wrong. where can this be chagned??

  • Answer:

    This is what Yahoo! is referring as a: Profile information display. It is a bug that reared its ugly head with the work done last week on Yahoo! chat. Yahoo! will have this fixed as soon as possible so you can be who you want to be in the chat rooms and not be forced to reveal all the nitty gritty details hiding in your Yahoo! registration profile. Note that I mentioned that it is your Yahoo! registration profile which is your "My Account" information that is being displayed when a cursor is placed over your Yahoo! ID in a chat room not your Yahoo! profile information. paaatches –This is one big “ooops” on Yahoo’s! part. Hopefully, they will get this issue fixed and fixed soon.

I have the exact same problem, and I have been asking others and they have the same problem too, it looks like it is an error from the Yahoo people. Nothing we can do I guess until they correct it, I already wrote to them, hopefully they will fix it soon because it sucks to have your wrong age on the chat room.
