Logging into one browser will log you out of the other because of the security token it generates when you log in.
Okay, that's interesting. I've never encountered that before with other sites. I tend to work with muliple browser windows and sometimes forget that I already have one open. That would explain my weird logout issues today since I was using both Opera and IE8.
In order to save a login, you have to store a cookie on the client, which then means the need for some sort of guard against spoofing that cookie. The most secure option seemed to be a secure random token generated with each login that then requires authentication. With each successful login, it regenerates as to thwart brute-force attacks. Because it updates, logging in with another browser causes the original to have a mismatched cookie.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobile
Yoda, the site is running very slowly for me today. Some of my updates got deleted, and I get error messages constantly!
I'am using Opera.
It might be a littel easier for one new to the site to notice the things beneath the big buttons on the front page if the news feed was above the buttons rather than below.
Oh, and whenever I make a post in that Burnout thread it goes into the original post.

I always copy all of my posts before clicking the submit button or write them in a separate word processor. It makes things much, much easier when stuff like that happens.

Same just happened to me, luckily I had it copied. I think it was because I put a "/" in my title.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileOccasionally I'm getting this as well:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@thevgpress.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Took me 3 tries to get this posted.
There's no way around this until we move to a dedicated server, which isn't happening unless we start generating revenue to cover a good chunk of the $30-40 montly cost.

Yoda, the Latest Comments RSS feed never updates. Also, I can subscribe to it in Opera, but I can't subscribe to it in IE8; all I get is a blank page with the title at the top.
Thanks
