   The gamedev Login system
  Ok, i am sick of stupid gamedev login system, everytime i come back an hour later i need to login again, the remember password does not work, and auto login doesn't work either:   I wonder if anyone else has this problem and if can someone please fix it?  I am not bothered with my account security, and i doubt anyone would want to hijack my account, since it is a privately owned pc with nobody else having access to the PC. i want to be able to login, and stay logged on, for at least a week or month or half a year without having to reenter the password.    
  Its ur browser isnt it?   ;  Could you tell us which browser/OS you're using, and if there's anything unusual about the setup?   ;  I don't know what it is, but it seems very random to me when it works and when it doesn't. But it certainly doesnt always log in automatically, even if you check that button.However, the "remember my password" works fine. Annoyingly so, even. It remembers the password.... once the page has fully loaded. Which means I often end up with my password entered twice. (First, I type it in because the field is blank. Then the site decides it's time to insert the default value, and I end up with some jumbled double password which certainly doesn't let me log in.This is on a plain Windows XP with Firefox.   ;Quote:Original post by SpoonbenderI don't know what it is, but it seems very random to me when it works and when it doesn't.

The same thing happens to me for every site (it enters the password after the page has loaded.)The only time I ever have to log in here is when I log out manually;  any other time it stays logged in. (I'm on Windows XP and Firefox as well.)   ;  I'm using XPSP1 with latest firefox, it does not remember the password even if i check it after the page loads completely. And the website is not blacklisted in firefox "do not save passwords" feature, it just doesn't work on gamedev! ;  I find the only time gamedev logs me out is if my dns changes. This happens when I change proxy server so I'd assumed it keeps track of this information when setting the auto-login cookie or something [smile]Regards,ViLiO   ;Quote:Original post by ViLiOI find the only time gamedev logs me out is if my dns changes.

Same here. I'm running W2k with Firefox.;  I had this problem when I used Firefox but ever since I installed IE7 everything works like a charm :)
