Why does the site make me continually sign in over and over while
I'm browsing and posting?
 
Roger perhaps you cookies were cleaned out. Next time you sign in check the box to remember your sign in. That sometimes happens to me.
 
because you're special? :) sorry ... I'm not seeing that (firefox 3.6 on xp, or safari on mac os/x) ... clear your cache on your browser, perhaps (sorry, that seems to have become the recent rendition of the old "reboot" fixall of the past)
 
As other have stated, the only reason that I can think of that something like that would happen were if cookies were disabled (or somehow not saving properly). I'm not going to ask you to switch browsers, but do you have another browser (or computer) that you could try to verify that it's working properly? I think we have the cookie retention set for a year. I haven't had to log in in months.
 
Yeah, I agree it's some sort of cookie issue. Which browser are you using?

I haven't logged in on my home computer in months.

When I had that issue with the site, it went away when I checked
the "remember me" box.

I'm using IE 7 and I just lowered the security setting on cookies
to Low. I'll see if that makes a difference.
