Hi all, I am wondering why I am unable to reply to forum posts etc. unless I log out and then back in. this has happened 3-4 times now and is becoming annoying. Has anybody else experience this?

Most folks who experience this issue, seem to solve it by the log out and log in method.

If it’s a recurring problem, perhaps clearing the cache/ history and cookies would help.

What browser/OS are you running?

Yes, I believe it’s the only solution.

No worries then and I will try clearing the cache etc.

Just wanted to make sure that I'm not doing something wrong.....

There are rumors that solid state computers are not compatible with the eHam software.

I have the same problem with the same OS and browser, comes and goes with no pattern and can be fine for months.

The problem with that is I lose all my log in data and it is a royal PITA to redo from a paper cheat sheet ;D

You are not using a keyboard or mouse, are you?

 I also have to periodically have to log out and log back in in order to reply to the forums.

 The thing is when I go to the main page to see if I'm logged out.  It still shows me logged in...

 That's where the confusion might arise for some who wonder if there is a problem with the forums, because it shows you are still logged in.

 So just manually log out and log back in and the problem is fixed. Until...it logs you out again in a couple of weeks.

 I'm using Firefox on Windows 7/64
