    For some insane reason, every third or fourth time I visit here I'm automatically logged out, though I've told IPB to keep me logged in. Is anyone else experiencing this too or is it a fault at my end?


    EDIT: Happened again right now, 11:28 PM PST (1828 GMT). Seems odd, since I always stay logged in at Retro.

    Sephiroth said he was having a similar problem. I haven't experienced anything yet.

    Yeah, it happens every time I close my browser, I have to log in again.

    Yeah I recently requested Ordos to change the cookie domain to simply .sonicresearch.org in order for me to work on site-forum integration. Clearing your old forum.sonicresearch.org cookies should fix this.

    I trd the Delete cookies set by this board button at the bottom of the main page, if that's what you mean. Otherwise, I'm clueless.

    No, that will only delete the .sonicresearch.org cookies. If you use Firefox, you have to go Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Show Cookies then find the forums.sonicresearch.org cookies and delete them.

    Doing what Jim suggests will correct the cookie problems you're experiencing.


    If you still have cookie problems, then manually log out of your account, and then remove all 'sonicresearch.org' cookies from your browser cache. That way, you'll create a fresh cookie the next time you log into the forums.
