Strange login behaviour (1 Viewer)

[snakybus]

Pete, sorry to be boring but this has been happening for a while and I'm curious. When I log in and am looking at a message or something, and then I go back to the Index, I'm logged out. Then if I go into "Who's Online", I'm called "anonymous", but "snakybus" is still there, farting around, looking at a thread or something. It's like an out-of-body experience. Also, after I read a message, it doesn't get "greyed out" like it used to.

Is this a problem with Thumped? Or would it be a problem with my browser? My browser does support cookies.

Snakybus - did you log in from another machine and forget to log out?

 

[admin]

ok that happens every now and then

best thing to do is to click the 'help' link up the top and select option 7 to delete all cookies.

but you might have to delete any cookies manually

to be honest that's probably not much help, is it?

 

[admin]

what egg said

 

[snakybus]

No I had thought of that and it's not it. Anyway, I went into help and deleted cookies (one's called ub-skin, kinky) and so far it seems to be working, although topic titles still aren't being greyed out.

I tried to delete cookies on my machine, but I've got like the latest latest version of IE5 and it don't put cookies where the old one did.

It doesn't matter really, I was just curious.

"Also, after I read a message, it doesn't get "greyed out" like it used to...."

yeah, me too
real pain in the hole

see if you've any cookies from 209.204.240.222 and delete them too

 

[snakybus]

yep, did that. I also went into Privacy Settings and modified the blocking of cookies from Thumped. Still no joy. Do I have to reboot?

 

[admin]

i dunno

i think you're fucked*



[1]* technical term[/1]

 

[snakybus]

hmm, yes....I did receive this error message.

Every time I look at this thread I think it says "strange LOIN behaviour".

But that would be refering to your other, much more serious problem, eh snakey?
