Post Something Weird I Noticed Logging On

#1  GrouchoCaesar 20 Oct 2010 21:42

Went to log on here today and noticed that I already was listed as online - even though the site presented me with a "Welcome Guest" panel and all.

Cue the spooky theremin music...

A cookie problem, maybe?  I've been logging on with multiple laptops (not at the same time!) so would that be a possible problem?

Just curious.

It never happened to me with Firefox, I noticed it with other browsers. Yes, it should be a cookie problem, just click on "log out" and log in again. The data are cached, it can even be that for a moment you're listed as "logged in" but you can't do nothing (things like writing a message) because you're not in. The system uses cookies and session ids together (that's that long series of characters that sometimes appears at the end of the address of the page in the browser), it can even be that they are not "unlocked" for a bit even beacuase the session id is on the database and the cookie is in the user's computer...

I will say when I tried to post the shout box it sent me to one of andreas's morphs. Now that is strange.

  Seems you've clicked on the transparent part of one of the flying graphics. They take you to random freebies. "It's not a bug, it's a feature"
