Jan 27, 2012 15:16:57 Heya techy folks,

Umm ... this has happened twice today. Just reading a thread in the Next section and suddenly I'm not logged in anymore. Both times it happened after I clicked the forum header at the top of the page to navigate out of a thread but also into the same forum. Once was in Mechanics for sure, can't recall the other time. I access the Next forums via the actual forums and not through the group. I was able to log back in once with the login button but that didn't even appear the second time. Rather, I just clicked on 'forums' and it logged me back in. Odd. And annoying. Anyhoo, FYI and thanks.

Thanks.

Jan 30, 2012 14:29:25 I get logged out every time I change computers, but I think that's annoying-and-pointless-but-intended behaviour.

Which is a good question, though, I suppose: IS the system supposed to log me out and make me click "log in" every time I switch browsers or computers?

Is there a good reason the Compendium makes me log in again on every new tab, even if I was logged in when I clicked "open in tabs" on 5 items?

Signing in on the main homepage instead of through the compendium should fix this problem.

Also I have had 2 posts disappear today when I clicked on submit. Both times it gave me a message of "you need to be signed in to reply" even though I was signed in when I submittd my reply. I then go to a forum page and am signed in like nothing was wrong.

Feb 03, 2012 15:18:48 Did that happen in the 'Next' section? If so, that's likely why. Apparently there's some bugginess with Next being both a forum section and a group. It's logged me out today as well. WotC is aware of the issue but hasn't said anything more than that so far as I know.
