Did anyone else have to "sign in" to get to MyLot this morning?

Am I "trippin'," or did MyLot undergo a change last night? I'm seeing a black box around where I'm typing that I don't remember from before. I had to "log in" this morning, which isn't usually the case. I've gotten no pop-up ads or error messages today, though I haven't been on long. Have you had a similar experience?

Nope. That's something to do with your PC/Browser, not myLot. You either cleared your cookies or they expired or something like that. These days, error messages seem to be dependent on: (a) the amount of activity your account has had (accounts with a lot of posts are more likely to be affected - no, I don't follow the logic, either) and (b) Intermet traffic at particular times of the day.

@LadyDuck The "Whoops! ... Page Not Found" page always looks as though you are logged out. It's lying. This is completely different from the problem @TheHorse was experiencing.

@GoAskAlice I had the same problem, I was commenting, I got a "Whoops page not found" and then I was asked to log in again. I had not cleared the cookies and messed up with my browser.

Now I have my regular borders back, don't have to sign on, and have not experienced any alien abductions in several hours. I guess it's time to "carry on."

I used catnip as seasoning in my food for the last couple of nights. I'd better get back to my normal "herbs."

I only have to log in when I clean my cookies out. That sounded funny.

Usually, when I clean out my cookies (or nostrils) it does not affect my MyLot experience.

We the normal folks do not face such issues and get to eat tasty potato curry for dinner. Such a pity I cannot share it with you.

@TheHorse Be my guest. By the way, DJ did the song. She had to use new software as the old one has been discontinued by Microsoft. Can you check it and come up with your usual vitriolic remarks?

I am not really sure what you are asking. If you mean that you usually don't have to log in but now you had to... it could be because you cleared your browser cookies. I always log out though, so always have to log in.

I have cleared my cookies (and brownies and biscuits) and never had to sign in here. Maybe it was somethng about the timing.

@TheHorse So you are saying that if you log in and don't log out you will always be logged in? Like forever until you log out?

I had this problem, but not as soon as I started to clear my notifications. I was opening a page that was possibly deleted and thrown out of myLot. I had to sign in again.
