Uhmm, if I look for your nickname on google I don't see this forum... There are 4 pages with all other adresses, but not this one....

Your username is literally the most public information on the entier forum. It is obvious it will be the first thing to leak out. But most of the contents of your profile should only be visible to registered users.

Do you use the same user name with anything google related? Do you use google on the same computer that you log on to this site? If your using the same computer, the cookies could be helping google find you. Google is the largest data mining company and they are open about it. They mine your data to enhance the search engine that makes google so effective.

Then again, it's not like it's hard to create an account.

100% security is something that not anyone can ever gurantee, anywhere.
Suggestion: you can change your profile name

When I googled jowjowgnome, it came back to websites for Malese Jow's feet. Do you need to tell us something? kidding
My guess is that the cookies on your computer used your user name here. Clear all the cookies & temp data & cache then re-google it.
