Involuntary log-outs.

[IN_Varmntr]

So these are becoming a big problem with me as of late. I'm logged in, creating a post and after spending a good 5-10 minutes on it, I hit Submit and it says I'm logged out and need to log in again. I log in and it refreshes my post screen, but all I'm getting is a blank white screen. I refresh it and it takes me to the thread I supposedly posted in, and it's not there.

So essentially I say screw it and decide not to type it all out again.

What is the issue here? My computer? The site's server? It's starting to **** me off. I know it takes an extra second, but I don't want to have to copy my entire post and try again once I log back in.

Only thing I can think of is have you used the "Remember Me" check box?

That has happened to me as well if I take my time on a post.

 

[RelicHound]

it will happen if you dont check the "remember me" box. has something to do with your IP address changing.

It happens to me also and my IP doesn't change.

Happens to me every once in a while, but I think it's related to my wireless U-Verse internet connection, as opposed to the site itself.

I forgot to add that I always check the "Remember Me" box.

I don't know if it's the computer your using or your ISP. I had the same problem on glocktalk but never had it happen here. So I don't think it's a problem with the site, maybe your ISP? Just a guess.

I believe it has more to do with browser cookies. You are assigned a static IP address from your ISP (most anyway). Clicking the remember me box when you log in should take care of it and not let your session "time out".

I use fire fox and that has never happened to me

Same here. Firefox and no problems.

I don't think that's it. I log on and hit remember me when I'm not going through PersonalVPN and when I switch to PersonlVPN it keeps me logged in with the new IP. I switch back and forth many times without logging out.
