Browser: Google Chrome Version 46.0.2490.80 m SO: Windows 7 Login name: Krakonico Password: ************************* Update: If the link is just a copy paste of the browser link it will open it in the same tab and the page stay logged. But if the link has the BBcode tags it will open in a second tab and appears as if I'm logged off 2nd Update: I used a encrypt to write my password here, so if you attempt to log with the one showed it won't work :P Updated Saturday, November 7 2015 @ 10:08:24 am PST

If you login via brokenbat.org but click a link to brokenbat.org, this is counted as a different website by your browser. Forum links add the www automatically, I believe.

Perhaps it is added automatically on mobile, but on my desktop the links that do not include "www." keep me logged in and do not automatically include it in the address. None of my links that I make include the "www." for that reason. Edit: My desktop always sends me to brokenbat.org without the "www." by default, perhaps mobile works the opposite and so my posts end up logging others out, regardless the fix is easy, either add or subtract the "www." from the address bar.

I notice this very often with links to players or sometimes other threads. My solution is to log in on the other version as well if I'm going to be clicking a lot of player links and need to stay in. It keeps me in for that session then. I can't say if your links do it or not, newt, as I don't remember the last time I clicked one.

EDIT: Actually its not doing that anymore... Did you already fix it? Updated Tuesday, November 10 2015 @ 9:35:50 pm PST

I'm in Firefox for reference. Edit: actually now mine is doing it, and the fix I suggested (which used to work for me) defaults me back to my team's page. What browser are you on Rock since it is fixed for you now? Updated Tuesday, November 10 2015 @ 9:44:13 pm PST
