I have my laptop, home desktop and around half a dozen workstations at work from which I visit a.org with and since the move to vBulletin I've not had a single problem. Just tick the box as Karlos has said and all will be fine.

@Karlos

Moderator eh?

Congratulations dude.
Hope this doesn't mean the Amiga.org logo is going to change as often as your avatar though. :D

Damn. First thing I don't like about the new website - the old smileys are gone. They're the first ones I really used, and the only ones I ever liked: all the other website smileys just looks cheesy (eg :D - See!).

Have no fear. Moderators can only moderate, not tinker with the actual site layout. My becoming a moderator wasn't as a result of the site needing any additional moderators, as I'm sure you'll agree the existing mods do a fine job. Wayne made me a moderator whilst the site was being migrated from xoops as it allowed me to access certain features of the site that were important while testing and migrating the old content.

Actually, most of the smileys are the same. There's just a few new ones.

I, for one, can report that I have never experienced any issues with getting logged off - although I do always click the "Remember Me" box.

:) :lol: :o :p :(

Are they?? But... they're all shaded and stuff. And the eyebrows, man...

:lol: looks the same, but I'm sure the ":)" smileyface used to look yellower and more friendly, in a way which said "Welcome to Amiga.org"

I like the new site though. For me there was nothing wrong with the old one, but then again I'm not the one doing the admin.

Hang on, you have a HSV wheel in your avatar and you are complaining that something else is shaded? :D

I used to have the problems with the site logging me out after about 3 minutes and it was very annoying, but since a few weeks ago when I did what Karlos has suggested in this thread it no longer happens. Ive been idling here for a few weeks now and have never been logged out.
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

Correction. I am a moderator now, I wasn't one for a good while after the new site went live and I had no such issues then, either.

Please try logging in via the method above. The default login box doesn't seem to provide the "remember me" option, but the one that appears when you try to access the UserCP without being logged in does:

I was sure I had checked that box - but it wasn't checked. That seems to have ended the problem. Thanks
