Help! Either Rootschat is crazy or I am
« on: Sunday 02 March 08 20:05 GMT (UK) »
Could some kind person tell me why my status keeps reverting to Guest after I have replied to a post. It's very inconvenient as I then can't reply again or modify without signing in again or messing around going into profile and picking up the thread there.

It doesn't always happen but I seem to be spending more time messing around than I am doing searches.

No, that is not my problem - speed is fine and I don't use Internet Explorer

An example of what is happening to me

This is the thread I am currently working on

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,289670.0.html

Just posted a reply and then went back on the thread to review the previous postings. Read page 1 ok and than clicked on the 2 for the 2nd page - got that ok but had become a guest.


As regards the other lady I know a lot of people on another site have been reporting that they are having numerous problems with AOL and Internet Explorer. Apparently the two are not compatible but don't quote me on that

Hi Tricia,

It could be a cookie problem, here is a link to an earlier post they may determine if this is the problem.

I was just thinking Cookies.
If you recently updated your security (or if Microsoft did it automatically) you will have this sort of problem. But it usually fixes itself after a day or two, all your regularly visited sites re-establish their Cookies.
