Sounds like maybe your pc is having some cookie problems.

I just returned to myLot after some time away, too, but Ihaven't noticed this problem. I know that the cookie that used to keep me logged in is not working at the moment, cause if I close the browser I will have to log back in (not too big of a deal, mind you, but still a bit annoying). I haven't experienced that one, though. Hope you find the solution to get that fixed though!

Well for me it always keeps logging me out which it never did before and its very annoying. But it dosnt log me off if I make a long post or take a long time to make a post that could be your computer since that has never happend to me before since I joined this site.

The only time this happened to me was on firefox, but I believe that's an option of the browser or just how I configured it sometime ago. On opera I don't the problem you describe.

I am using firefox, I think it was the cookie issue.. i deleted the cookies for just mylot, and then relogged in as another user suggested and VOILA! it worked!

It must not like you! I've been logged in for a year without being kicked off. That's strange that it should happen to you that way, there must be gremlins in the software!

I think that's happened to me maybe once or twice but only because My fiance had just logged off of mylot and I logged in, but it kicked me back onto his mylot. I guess it could just be something local for you, like spyware that is causing that to happen. Try clearing the cookies, and then logging back in to see if that helps. Also a high number of people on mylot at one time could cause that, I don't know if there's such thing as a booter, but it is possible that too many people on a server can kick some off unintentionally.

It's not happening to me. Sounds like something is off on your computer.

Hi there Sissygrl This use to happen to me all the time when I first started here on mylot but when I seemed to pass the 500 post mark it didn't seem to do it anymore. I can't say I have had the problem since either - sorry!! LOL

hi there.. sometimes unwanted software that are installed in your computer are the ones making this problems or software that are needed to upgrade or update like for example anti virus software and other software installed needed network to have monthly or weekly updates depending on when to update...software need to have update from time to time....
