2 things

1) For some reason, my machine at work keeps clearing my cookies after i visit one or two pages.

2) When someone is browsing the site w/o logging in, you're defaulting the forum pages to "the begining", rather than the shortened time that you're defaulting for logged in users. Might be a good idea to set unregistered users to the same limit?

Forced refresh. It's what I thought F5 did, until I noticed some pages never change with the regular refresh.

You guys need to visit meta more often!

Step 1: Clear out all your en world cookies.

Step 2: Go to the forums via their new url; go to www.enworld.org/forums/.

Step 3: Log in to make new cookies.

Step 4: Overwrite your old Favorites bookmark with a new one to capture the correct url.

That should do it!

Don't take this the wrong way BUT am I going to have to do this every time the board has maintance? Only step I did not do is the url because I changed that last week.

Thanks you.
