Any idea why I have to log in every 20 minutes?

Post by kristina »

Just logged in for the third time in a hour. I've been reading (and as usual, not posting much) some fairly long posts, and when I click back to the "unread posts" link, I have to log in again!

Is there a setting I might have inadvertently changed?

The answer should be obvious Kristina....

You've been marked as a trouble maker, and the admins are trying to block you....

The amazing thing is that you're able to log in at all.... 8-)

Hi Kristina, do you check the "log me in automatically?" box?

I don't check that box, Daisy. I mostly log in from work (shhhh!), and I'm not the only one to use this computer.

And now, after being logged in for over an hour, and spending the last 45 minutes with a customer, I'm still logged in!

Curiouser and curiouser...

eta: Maybe the computer knows that Daisy is watching! :lol:

Go to 'Settings' and click on the 'Apply to Join Clique' button Kristina. If your application is successful you will automatically be redirected to the super-duper, bug free, real version of the forum. What you are viewing now it the "Twilight Plan B".

There's a fee of course, and we'd have to have access to your personal e-mail account. Oh, and nude photos.

sounds like your internet connection times out when it doesn't sense activity for a predetermined amount of time. Just reading a long post does not cause internet activity. Usually the thread is downloaded to your computer with no activity until you change threads or go to another part of the forum which requires downloading more/different data.

Chaps, by definition, are "assless".
Chaps ( /ˈʃæps/ or /ˈtʃæps/) are sturdy coverings for the legs consisting of leggings and a belt. They are buckled on over trousers with the chaps' integrated belt, but unlike trousers they have no seat and are not joined at the crotch.
:ok

Please note, many of my posts are meant to lighten the mood around here. Life is short, don't take it so seriously, and don't take my posts internally! :nana

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Yes, that image of the "good doctor" is rather apprapos. :mrgreen:

Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

I'd also like to apologize to kristina for the unfortunate but unavoidable topic hijack. My bad. :shrug

I didn't know Trotsky was a doctor...

I'm assuming that's Trotsky, since he was murdered by an assassin sent by Stalin to Mexico where he was living, in the late 1940s... with an ice pick....
