wierd quirks

[pinnah]

FYI, When I arrived at the site this morning, I got to be majorvices for a moment.

It said Welcome majorvices at the top, I could see all the sub forums that are not normally exposed for me...like the moderator section and the Industry section.

I clicked out and returned and it was back to normal.

Weird quirks; an aptly named thread.

Happened to me again today.  A few days ago I was someone else.  Today I was Denny.

I'm wondering if someone else might have gotten logged in under my account.

We need to know whether there's a risk of account compromise, someone getting in, changing my password, viewing my account profile info, viewing my PMs, etc.

Hey, I was Denny when I checked in this time!  He gets to see a whole different page than the rest of us.

 , Me too.  Pretty interesting being Keith in the morning and Denny in the afternoon.

FWIW, Poor Denny only gets the flat blue screen, with none of the new colors or fonts the rest of us are getting with the new AHA scheme.

Well I got to be Majorvices for a minute.

I suddenly found myself wanting to tell someone to make a starter and pick up their trash.


FWIW, for Monday morning IT,

it seems that if you try and access the site immediately after a moderator signs on, you get to see the site as the moderator would.  I just got the welcome major vices screen again and he was the first user listed in the online member list.

However, any actions to try and access different areas that a mod might have access (try to click on the Moderator section) kicks you to a Login screen that says umm yea, you really don't have access to this, please sign on.

Hope this helps.

That's my choice.  I hate the yellow/orange/brown scheme.

Thank God...I'd hate for you guys to see what we're REALLY saying about you!

Uh, huh.
I am a moderator on another forum.  I know how those mod only threads go.

  I doubt I would be shocked, but FWIW, you guys are wrong about me.

I heard from Nate that they've been working on the login problems and changed some settings that may help.  Let us know.

Negative.  I was on earlier this evening normally. An hour later, I come back and I'm signed in as another user (not an admin).

This really does have to stop.

I got on site a couple of minutes ago and discovered I was logged on as someone else!  I don't remember the logon name though.  I hit logout and discovered that it said I was currently logged in as myself and that the logout didn't work. (It said an error occurred)

The picture of me below my screen name is also now gone.  And I went to post a reply and it came up with a timeout message (I hadn't been typing a long time), but I just hit 'post' again and it went through.

Everything else seems to be working.

Yesterday I logged in and it showed me as your username. I logged out and back in and i was still logged in as you. I tried it again and it worked but it was really weird.

I wasn't automatically logged in last night on the ipad, but was this am on the pc.
Another quirk: I always click the "unread" button and read all those posts by clicking the "back" button after each one.  Last night on the ipad this step would eliminate the post I just read from the list.  That's not normal (not in a Three Floyds way).

Hi Steve-

Can you let me know exactly what time you experienced the login bugs? We made a change around 4pm on Dec 23rd that couldhave/shouldhave fixed the issue.

Dec. 22 4:50PM Pacific time.  I have not been logged in as anyone else since then.  But there continue to be login issues of a less entertaining variety.  I always set my login to stay logged in forever, but I regularly (even this morning was logged out.  But as I was went to the login screen I saw that I was logged in as myself without doing anything - in other words by merely going to the login page I became logged in.

Another weird thing is that when I am posting a response to a thread, it frequently tells me it has timed out even though the time from clicking 'Respond' to when I click 'Post' is not unusually long.

Minor issues.  Hope this helps.

The only login issue I have had is being logged out when I have checked the stay logged in option. The fix is hitting the reload button on the browser. Works for me at least.

That's one I personally haven't seen.  I stay logged in.
