Title: Keep getting booted/logged out
Post by: 99th on January 25, 2018, 03:30:33 AM
The forums keeps giving me an "authentication error" every 5 minutes or so and I keep having to log back in. It's getting pretty annoying when I am doing all my bounty reports for obvious reasons.

Known issue?

Anyone else having this problem?

Anyway to resolve this?

Thanks,
A.

The only reasons your account is logged out periodically that i know of is either you are logged in from multiple devices and you pressed logout from one of the devices, or you have selected when you logged in that you want to stay logged in for x amount of time.

Other than that i have no idea why you're getting kicked out. Are you sure you're not clicking on a phishing link either? Some phishing links when you click on them claim that you're logged out and asks you to entire your password.

I have never received "authentication error" as an error message, though. Mind including some screenshots?

Hmm you know what I just thought of... I used my phone for the first time to log in at my girlfriend's place 2 nights ago. I wonder if that is what's causing the issue. I have it checked in on my desktop to keep me logged in for 60 minutes at a time. This keeps happening every 5 minutes.
