TS Managers,

On occasion, I'm getting logged out of the site infrequntly but randomly. I'll be logged in and one in a long while I go to submit a post and I'm logged out! Sometimes it happens after I've been logged in for a while, other times it's only after 15 mins. Does't happen all the time, just once in a long while.

Is this a known problem?

We use cookies to keep you logged in. I would suggest you clear yours and then log back in, let us know if problems persist.

While cookies problems have been reported in the past, usually it's not our setup to blame since it's pretty standard (hard and proven) forum software that we and many other sites run

I thought that getting logged out was a time issue, like 15 minutes in writing a post or something. In fact I'm pretty sure it's a time issue. I've gotten used to it, since I stink as a typist. I just copy the post and log back in. Now the thing where, when you log back in and the site tells you, "you have specified an invalid thread", that actually is fairly annoying.

I've developed a procedure where I'll type a couple of paragraphs, enter the post and then use edit to finish the post so as I won't get logged out. Crude, but effective!

Initially that's what I thought too but it happened to me today shortly after I logged in. Then I realized it wasn't a timeout issue. Now, it doens't happen regularly, in fact, infrequently. But it does happen from time to time. And yes, I get the "you have specified an invalid thread" which is annoying!

I'm almost sure that time is one consideration. You may have another problem as well.

Does this still happen when you (either of you) check the remember me box when logging in? I can assure you that it's not supposed to work the way you describe it.

It's most likely a browser issue; I sometimes have to re-enter all info again when I try to visit my Clan's Forum that I set up (vB) even though I checked the "remember me" icon .

I don't. I had associated it with the "remember my password" function. Although that does sound silly now that you point it out. Still, as long as I'm active at the site, it doesn't happen. The little checkbox would permit potty breaks? Cool!

Well, I got punted not once but *TWICE* today from the site! Don't know what's causing the spontaneous logouts but it's annoying (but that's all!)
