Forums eat my threads lately

[markusthelion]

Ok so I log in, respond to threads, hit ''post" and I get the log in screen again and no post. Whats up wit dat? This a 'known issue?' or an 'unknown unknown (things we don't know that we dont know)?'

It's because you're not logged in. Log in through MyDDO and check the "remember me" box - if you log in through the forums you'll get logged out in a matter of minutes.

There's currently a known issue on the forums where it logs you out for inactivity when it shouldn't.

A quick workaround is to log in through my.ddo.com and then click the "Forums" link on the top. Logging in through my.ddo.com keeps you logged in longer.

I also make a habit of ctrl+a, ctrl+c (copy all) my post before submitting, in case this happens, so I don't have to re-write what I just typed.

We're working on a fix for this already.

Since this issue arose, I have yet to be logged out!

I log into myddo, enter lotteries, after that updates (wait for page to auto refresh), then come to forums.

How about the "not being able to use spell checker" in the My.DDO blogs? Is that on the list, too?

{OK, OK, not exactly a "forum" issue, but it is related, as it stopped working after "The Great Security Scare of 2011".}

Been happening a lot lately and causing me to lose posts. Anyone else getting hit with this? Please, extend the auto log out to at least an hour. I get long winded.
