Baords keep logging me out. :(

It may be to do with how individual ISPs cache web traffic. I know I had these kinds of problems last year when I was using my dialup account. The problems largely went away after I switched to broadband.

arr!
I be on broadband, so that can't be it, matey!

oops - I gotta find a voice for this this Alt-ID... :)

BTW: It logged my alt-ID out a little while after, as well.

I've found that if I go back to a page that I wasn't logged in to, it immediately kicks me out, but if I log in at like the page that displays all the threads, and don;t go any further back, that it'll let me stay logged on a little longer before kicking me out.
 

That's exactly the same problem I was having. It *kinda* seems to be fixed now.
I have to disable my firewall when I use DC++, and while DC++ing today, I found
that I don't log out like that. So while the firewall was down, I did a cookie wipe
and now it seems to work fine. Hope it lasts, I should probably restart my computer
and see if everything gets wonky again.

Same here, it took a while but now it's got my alt id too.

The point is that when I got broadband, I switched ISPs. I used to be on Zipworld, now I'm using Telstra Bigpond. The logout problem went away after that.
 

If the problem "creeps in" like that, is it related to advertisements? Maybe a cookie that gets added incrementally as you click on different parts of ENWorld or the message boards?

Do any of the problem sufferers notice anything wonky about their system resources or memory usage? Like, is either lower when the site seems to be working properly?

I'm on a Win98 SE box and it works fine... though I wish it blocked some folks' posts a little more effectively. :)
