Login changes

Some changes were made to login to ensure logins are flushed out, as of the recent login issues. Post here, if you still have some issues.
 
Phew, i just got logged out again. Glad to see your post. I thought the drama was going to happen all over again.

uh, i thought this all happened like 12 hours ago. what good is it now?
 
Okay, I'm not sure what "Some changes were made to login to ensure logins are flushed out" means but, despite having the "remember me" box checked, every time I leave the forums it logs me out.

edit: A magic wand has been waved and the problem solved. Thanks magic-wand-waver.

i think that is the "fix" for the problems, until they fix it some other way, the fix is to not use the cookie, so you always get logged out now

just guessing

Thanks. Some of us speak only English. 🙂 I did read and didn't see anyone mention that they had this problem.

Logging in and out doesnt insure the other user is out!
Someone is still logged in as me even though I logged in and out and 2 thread bumps were made at the times I redid it and was surfing the forums myself.

This is kinda un-nerving considering that , yes my password is not showing, but they can easily change it to something else and I will not be able to log in anymore.

That IMO needs to be adressed that 2 people are logged in at the same time and can stay logged in together till the imposter logs out.

And yeah latst night I went to be after logging in and out and seeing a post made with my screen name afterwards while I newly logged ina nd out this morning I wake to see a bump in another FS thread and my avitar changed as well. So there is someone still on my account even as I am on it too.

What Jason is saying is that everyone has been logged out, so if anyone was logged in as you they are not anymore.

 
Testing.......

yea, I'd say it works. (thx) I was logged in as someone else a few days ago (asked me for a new secret word or w/e you want to call it). It was rather weird.

All is well now

Except:
I think you should just shut down the forums and reindex everything some day with nothing better to do 😛

(and maby add a programming forum while your at it)

sry, just had to say it 🙂

But thanks.
