  • The auto-logout issue...

    Um, hate to start another thread on this, but the other one was closed without a resolution due to spam and all the old threads on this are in the Archive.

    This just happened to me again, in both Poly windows. Although not a huge concern it is a bit of a nuisance.

    Can we have a mod give us an idea on this - whether it is a real bug or something unavoidable/too difficult to attempt to fix? We didn't get that by the time the other thread was close. If it makes a difference, there are currently 82 members and 112 guests on Poly - is that enough for the supposed 'server load' cause mentioned as a possibility by rah in an earlier thread?

    I've been auto-logged out many times... usually once a week on average...
    This space is empty... or is it?

      Back when I were using IE I used to get autologged out sometimes, but since I started to use Mozilla Firebird (now Firefox) I've never had any sush problems.

        It's quite rare here. Ironically it happened this morning though.

          Same as ADG.

            It never happens to me on IE.


            I have to say that the worst browsers for Poly are AOL and Opera, in that order. Both log out all the time, and AOL doesn't let you vote in polls either.

              Who in their right mind would even use AOL?

                  I use Opera and have not been logged out. Ever.

                    Well I use Opera and as I say it has happened to me a couple of times recently.

                      What version? I'm using 7.23 and it has not happened to me.

                        Since I switched to IE 6, I haven't had any problems with this.

                        ACK!

                          Skanky:

                          Maybe I should upgrade.

                          Still, I'm not sure it's the browser since it has only happened recently.

                            This almost never happens to me. If I'm in the middle of typing up a long post and I get distracted and come back to my computer 10-15 minutes later, then yes, I get logged off. Otherwise, not a problem.

                            I use IE, as it seems most others without a problem do.

                              The first thread was closed by MarkG because of spam. If this one gets closed for the same reason, I'm just going to restrict and PCR the offenders...
