Getting bumped

[Sioux-cia]

I've been getting 'signed out' at different times since yesterday. It occurs when I attempt to respond to a post, click on 'Forums', or move to another thread. At first I thought I was clicking on 'log out' by mistake but I've been really, really careful and it's still happening; not everytime, only about 75% of the time.

Hmmm... this happening to anyone else?

One thing that comes to mind is that the cookies that keep track of your login are domain-name specific, that is, uscho.com couldn't read the cookies set by siouxsports.com. One possibility is that you're accessing the site from an alternative name such as http://www.siouxsports.com or http://siouxhockey.com, but then something you click is directing you to http://siouxsports.com, at which time siouxsports.com couldn't read the cookie.

OK?!?

I haven't changed anything re how I log in so if that's the problem, I don't know how to fix it.

Could it be a server-based vendetta against you, Sioux-cia? After all, you have had your run ins with various posters/entities here.

No, no, I'm not saying that you changed the way you login -- there was definitely a big server change in the last couple weeks that is undoubtedly the cause. What I was speculating was that the way you log in might be slightly different from the way other people do such that the new configuration of the new server is giving you a problem that it isn't necessarily giving to other people (or me).

One big thing to watch, if the problem is as I described above (I know, a lot of techno-speak) is to see if the hostname part of the address bar changes between when you are logged in and when you aren't. e.g., if when you're successfully logged in you're on "www.siouxsports.com", but when it logs you out you're at "siouxsports.com", that would be interesting.
