CO doesn't remember me

I log in and check remember me. I still need to sign in EVERY time. Is it me or is CO getting forgetfull. I know I have that problem!!
Also how come when I type in a nice long, witty , thoughtfull, informative post, MR "submit reply" says, you don't have permission to do so, Please sign in again?

Mike, are you signing in at the top right of the screen, or are you using the dialogue box in the middle of the screen? I've found that it really depends on which one you use. The 'please sign in again' reminder is indicative of not having posted for around 20 minutes and not being checked in on the 'remember me' box. Really weird.

I haven't run into the problem you're describing, although at times I've lost some perfectly good posts that took a long time to compose because of a site hiccup (I think). Doesn't hurt to Ctrl A, Ctrl S before posting if you're experiencing a lot of issues. At least that way you can paste the info into a new dialogue box when you get back on.

Do You have your browser set to delete cookies? If your browser dumps your cookies the website will not remember you. if that is the case you can add an exception to the rule.

I think your internet browser is the problem, not CO. Try using another browser and see what happens.

That and Google Chrome seem to work really well.

You have your "Num Lock" key turned off. Turn it on and you should be fine.
