Forum-related log in annoyance

I've noticed that when ever I go to post an RP or something, my log in times out, and sometimes it tells me that I have to repost because a code or something doesn't match up. Obviously it's because I had to log in twice.

My browser saves the content of my RP, so I can simply select all and copy, but I am concerned because it is not only an annoyance, but I also know that perhaps some browsers set to higher security standards may delete sent data, or by some slip one could easily hit paste instead of copy or cut, and lose a lot of written work. I don't suppose you could do something about this, such as not allowing it to time out when you have a post window open?

I can go months at a time without having to log in to the forums. I think it may be on your end.

Log out of the forums, clear all cookies from jolt.co.uk, and log in again directly to the forums. It works for me.

I also have log-in issues. Coming directly from my NS page hasn't worked in a while (I get the error page, follow the link there to the forums, and all is good) and it's a toss-up whether I log in automatically or not, irregardless of the "remember me" check.

Annoying when I open a bunch of links in tabs and then look to see if I'm logged in, but *meh*.

We've been aware of that one for some months now, and we can't isolate the issue. It's high on the To Do list, but don't hold your breath.

Thanks. I'll see how it works, and hope for the best. Although I don't have this problem in any other forum, I also haven't cleaned out my Jolt cookies in a while.

Nope, still happens.
