    Even though I have never logged out I now have to log in every time, this has only happened in the last week or so and even if click 'stay logged in' it doesn't make any difference, anyone else or just me?

    I always log out, Strongy, but I'm not sure if your "problem" has anything to do with the new update:dunno:

    Yep, staff have to log out, so as not to give a false sense of security/terror.

        What browser are you using? Have you got cookies enabled? What are your "what do I do with cookies when I close browser" settings?
        Could be something there perhaps?

            No, at the next update all your problems will move onto somebody else.

              I have to sign in most of the time too even though I check the box to stay logged in, the only time it stays logged in is if I re-visit the site within a short space of time, say 10 mins or so???:scratch: :dunno:

                I have to log in every time, but i set my browser to in privete browsing, not tracking, and no history, so when i shut down i have to sign in next time
                Edit
                Some times when the internet drops, and i come straight back i have to log in, but if you look on the home page and see who's on line my name will be there, but i can't post anything till i sign back in

                  I had to re-log in after typing a (brief!) reply!

                  So far, in 25 minutes, I've logged in ... 3 times (and counting)

                    The opposite for me, I'm sometimes logged in but my username is missing from the list of members online.

                    Same here, the only time I get logged out from here or other forums, is when my computer throws a wobbly and I lose all my cookies.
