Frequent Logouts

in H.Q. Reception Desk
Since the Valentine's Day thing went live, the forums seem to enjoy logging me out random intervals, sometimes mid post, sometimes when I jump threads and sometimes when I jump forums. I'm not sure if it's on my end or not, but reporting it seemed the responsible thing to do.

    This has actually been happening since before that went live, I think the extra interactions and clicking around due to the game just makes it more noticeable. Thanks for the report though, I am certain Icy is already working on it :)

    I think that might have been resolved? I'm getting it too today and it is very frequent.

    And it seems like all is dying, and would leave the world to mourn
  • SpoitSpoit *twitch twitch* Registered User regular
    Isn't that the opposite of resolved? It seems to be marking threads as read, even if it logs you out and goes to the first page

    Yeah I am getting it like... every few clicks now

    I don't need to log back in, I just refresh or click on something else and I'm back to being logged in

  • SpaffySpaffy Fuck the Zero Registered User regular
    Me too, and only since this morning. Been logged out 6 times in the last half hour. I'm on mobile, iOs7, using google chrome

    I find just clicking on the section or thread again has me logged back in, so I think it's just skipping the cookie sometimes for some reason.

  • PinfeldorfPinfeldorf Yeah ZestRegistered User regular
    For your avatar, skipping the cookie seems unforgivable.

  • LostNinjaLostNinja Registered User regular
    I've been getting this for the last few days, but it has been particularly bad last night and this morning.

    That escalated to yelling much faster than I anticipated.

    This has definitely been happening to me a lot even before the Valentine's game.

    I'm working on it, but the cause is somewhat elusive

    Its elusive and fickle because the Database knows you no longer love her with the passion you used to, So she's being passive aggressive to get you to leave her so you can feel the pain that she feels.

    Knock on wood, but this seems to have gone away in the last hour or so. At least for me.

    So good job, Icy?

    Is the event over now as a result?

  • MaddocMaddoc I'm Bobbin Threadbare, are you my mother? Registered User regular
    I dunno if this is relevant at all

    But this is not the only Vanilla forum I'm experiencing this issue on

    Also it just happened again a second ago (on both forums, even)

  • ChanusChanus Harbinger of the Spicy Rooster Apocalypse The Flames of a Thousand Collapsed StarsRegistered User, Moderator mod
    I was doing well for a while after Icy announced the fix, but over the last ten minutes or so I've had four logouts.

    Allegedly a voice of reason.
  • spool32spool32 Contrary Library Registered User, Transition Team regular
    logged out again, and no more valentine action either.

  • Harry DresdenHarry Dresden Registered User regular
    My account is still acting up.

  • WiseManTobesWiseManTobes Registered User regular
    I'm getting the random logouts as well, but I find if I refresh the page I'm auto-logged back in.

    i find refreshing works sometimes but not every time

    haven't pinpointed a difference between when it does and doesn't work though :/

    Mine seems better, no logouts from my phone in the last couple hours.

    I'm not only getting logouts, I'm getting "can't connect to this site" things from Firefox. It's kind of weird because I can log on for a bit but you try to come back and nothing, and it just seems to be the forums page.

  • InquisitorInquisitor Registered User regular
    I am getting logged out more often than not at the current moment when I try to load pages on the forum.

  • davidsdurionsdavidsdurions Your Trusty Meatshield Panhandle NebraskaRegistered User regular
    Yeah I'm getting the log outs again now with just being logged back in on next click. Using iOS 7.0.4 Safari.

  • Just_Bri_ThanksJust_Bri_Thanks Seething with rage from a handbasket.Registered User, ClubPA regular
    Not actually logged out, but the login screen is shown. Loading the bookmarks page from the login screen without clicking login again works just fine.

    ...and when you are done with that; take a folding
    chair to Creation and then suplex the Void.
  • jothkijothki Registered User regular
    Logged out, along with a 403 error at the bottom right saying something about varnishing the cache. Which is basically the silliest sounding error message ever.

  • LostNinjaLostNinja Registered User regular
    Getting logouts as well as a 503 guru meditation error every time I "agree," "awesome," or "so raven" something.

  • archivistkitsunearchivistkitsune Registered User regular
    In addition to logouts, I'm getting the over capacity message when refreshing a page or opening a new one.

    getting these a lot, posting replies is almost impossible

    i realize if this reply posts that that's a weird statement

    ok so

    I just tried to make a reply in this beautiful tech thread here http://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/187654/tech-who-smartwatches-the-smartwatchmen-nerds-inside

    it logged me out and gave me some Varnish Cache error

    Logged back in to try to post again

    turns out in quad-posted?

    i'm also getting logouts every 2-3 clicks now

    Same. Also got a few "page not found" and "whoops" errors along with logouts, gurus, and like. What is Ice doing? Are we getting bro? back?

  • UnnDunnUnnDunn New York, NYRegistered User regular
    I am not getting logged out of the forum, but I am getting logged out of the main site with every page click.

    In other words, I log in on penny-arcade.com, I click to a new page, I'm logged out. Log in again, click a new page, logged out. Repeat ad nauseam, after which time I just don't bother logging in anymore.

    I run IE11 on Windows 8.1 Pro as my main. My alt is Firefox 27; I haven't observed the same behavior in that browser.

    Would be neat to see like a little alert like we get occasionally of big news with information like that.

    not a doctor, not a lawyer, examples I use may not be fully researched so don't take out of context plz, don't @ me

    I'm not sure if it's related to the logout issue, but I can't seem to log in through the forums.

    On the forum homepage, I click log in, enter my info (neither username nor email address works), and the message I get back says
    Email/Username is required.
    Password is required.
    Please try again.

    But if I go to the PA homepage, I can use the club pa login, and then click through to the forums.
