Odd log-out bug?
Posted: Mon May 09, 2005 9:03 pm
For awhile now, I've been wondering why I'm forced to log in at SectorGame every time I visit, even if I've already visited in the same day. Well, I've discovered the source, if not the solution, of the bug. Here's the situation:
1) Whenever I visit http://www.sectorgame.com/forums/index.php, accessed via favorites, the forum sees my cookie and remembers me as logged in.
2) Whenever I visit http://sectorgame.com/forums/, the forum does not remember me, for whatever reason. I have to keep logging in (and losing my "posts read" history) every time I arrive via this link (accessed by me typing "sectorgame.com/forums" in the address bar, which is shorter than the full address).
Now that I know what's going on, I'll be sure to arrive via the proper link. However, I'm curious as to the cause of this bug. Any ideas? Any way to fix it?
