logged out after posting

Post by snb »

Since the forum has been moved to a new server/provider I have the privilege to be logged out every time a post/reply has been sent.
There may be a kind of automatic censorship in this forum, which would be quite understandable in my case, but I'd prefer a more personal approach to clarify that my posts apparently are too harsh for the sensitive souls that visit this lounge ;).
If my assumptions are considered delusive and incoorect I wouldn't mind the solution of this unvoluntarily exclusion scheme.

I hope you will be able to find and punish the culprit.

I would start by clearing all browser cookies and history to see if that fixes it

snb, I'm sorry that you are being logged out, but it has nothing do you with you as a person or with your style of posting. There are still some glitches after we updated our software - others have reported being logged out too.

See if Stuart's suggestion helps.
Best wishes,
Hans

@Stuart,

That's what I had to do after the 4th of May to get logged in in the first place.

@ Hans
I hope the irony was obvious enough ;)

I have to admit I wasn't 100% sure...

I haven't been logged out every time I post, but I have been logged out more frequently than before. But, you know... I figured it was my frequency of posting....

This is a strange problem; we haven't been able to find a pattern or cause. But we will keep on looking.

Then we should keep posting when it happens?

I suspect it has to do with the redirecting page that is being 'shown' after submitting. My webbrowser doesn't accept popup windows.
I think the forumsoftware doesn't handle that correctly.

I also don't allow popup windows. I have not seen this issue.

But did get "You cannot make another post so soon after your last."

There is a one-minute timeout between posts to balance server load and to prevent spammers from flooding a forum with large numbers of posts in a short period of time.
