problem with vBulletin still...

[mrsD]

I posted a bit about this on the other thread I started...there were two parts
to my question then. Mostly the N/A bit from members list.

But I did have trouble accessing my ID information from a friend's computer
a week ago. It kept asking for my user ID and welcoming me, and as soon as
I moved to a forum, the ID was lost.

Well, I have been having problems HERE with PMing. I will type in a PM,
and then when I hit submit, it says I am not logged in and asks for ID again.
When I did that, it said I could not post within 60 sec... so I opened another
window and low and behold that PM did go thru.
Today I tried a PM again, and it asked for my ID again at submit, and
did not send it like before. Is there a time out on PMing? I use Firefox
and have a completely different browser than the one last week. This forum is
not losing my ID however, when I move around the forums, only in PM function. ??? puzzling????

hi mrsd,
welll.. I don't know what to tell you about that.

This might be a question for Kimmydawn or docjohn.
They probably know more about the vbulletin settings and such.

Have you tried it with other browsers - like IE or Netscape 8.1 ?

or you are sure it's a vbulletin problem?

remember all the double posts we got at OBT those last 6 months?
because the server was slow to reply that the post went through?
your PM that did go reminds me of that.

sorry I wasn't a better help- maybe someone will be along soon with better ideas.

It is only happening on PMs here...and when they are long.

Shorter ones do not drop my sign in.

The one I tried to use last Friday was AOL, IE.. this one dropped my ID on every page...then when I went to post it dropped me again. It was totally weird. And I gave up

I use Earthlink, and Firefox here. And only have problems so far with
longer PMs (twice now). Shorter ones don't drop me. I was thinking it was a
time out thing...I don't usually send alot of PMs but have been lately. This is a much friendlier board for me, and I am enjoying that. ;)
I had to keep PMs closed at OBT due to trolls.
