    Is Anyone Else Being Automatically Logged Off This Site?

    I am being automatically logged off this site after what seems to be a random amount of time. It only happens on my desktop Chrome. My phone Chrome is not a problem. My desktop Internet Explorer is not a problem. Only my desktop Chrome.

    Is anyone else having this problem?

    If so, have you tried clearing your cookies? I have, several times!

    Did it help? Not for me!

    If you are having the same problem, what browser and version are you using?

    I am on Chrome and it logs me out every time I leave the site, but it has not logged me out while I was on the site.

    Here either...My Asus desktop is on Chrome 100% of the time...The only time I ever have to log back in is when I restart the computer...I just switch users when I shut it down at night, and log back in as the same user next morning...I'm still logged in here and other sites that require a password......Ben

    I'm not sure. I have 5 different devices, 3 with Chrome and 2 with Firefox and IE.

    For the most part I don't have the option to stay logged in checked.

    What did happen today was a problem logging in
    I shut down Firefox and started back up and it was fine.

    I will watch more closely.

    I have had no auto ejection events.

    I am no longer being logged out when I leave the site.

    I use Safari on an iPad exclusively and have the problem of being logged out automatically every time I close. There is no “button” to check to stay active or retain a cookie.

    So when you log in, you don't see a little checkbox under your name like in the attachment?......Ben

    I found it, but it was so fuzzed out it was easy to miss. User error.

    My switch to a different version of Chrome solved my problem.
