It seems to me that I am constantly asked to "sign in" whenever I want to do something. Is it me or what? Thanks.

I have been getting signed out pretty much every day since the update of the new Game Manager, both on the website and in the Game Manager, when I was never logged out before the update unless I logged myself out. Many other people are reporting this problem. I have heard that they are working on trying to fix this.

Just as annoying - The list of my games always comes up sorted by game title.

It used to do that, then they fixed it so it would remember I want 'most recently played'

Now it has reverted, suggesting that they used parts of the original code when "improving" the latest version. It's always sump'n.

That's funny, Tally Ho, because for me, I cannot get it to sort/hold the list by game title the way I want it, like it used to.

Regarding the signing in/out issue, I haven't really had that problem with my game manager but I've been logging out of the site when I leave it, so I'm not sure if trying to stay logged in there would be an issue or not.

It's a common flaw. I.e. the need to (re)sign in even when you have your log in set to "remember me" It even happens on GB if I don't visit the forum for two or three days.

That is interesting because it almost never happens to me here.

In fact , it happened to me today! Perhaps it has something to do with the frequency of forum visits. If I log on daily to check what's going on I don't have a problem. But if some time elapses between log ins, I need to log in again. No problem, except it may take me some time to realize I'm not logged in. Usually happens when I try to respond to a post and can't.

Tim, if you uncheck the "keep me logged in" and put your password in and then check the "keep me logged in" box before you log in, it will generally keep you logged in without fail. For some reason it doesn't work as well if you put the password in after the box is checked.

Done. We'll see how it works the next time I'm gone for a few days.
