Yes, something is messed up.
The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
I was going to post with exactly the same topic title. Great minds Gob.
This is as bad as I've ever seen the logout bug. This is my (third) time of trying to post. It's also failing to recognise my remembered PW which was fine yesterday.
Arguably as bad as it's ever been for me - logs me out almost every page, making the fora almost impossible to use. (Some of you may think that's a good thing? 
)

Got it to. Making a short post cause Im sure it will log me out again. Even worse..I try to log back in, using the correct details, and it says they are wrong..when I AM logged in on another tab of Firefox..using those SAME details. This is really pathetic for a public forum.
Reporting in to say i have it too. Constant logout on almost every other page and getting the "wrong password" message too.
@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!
Having the same issue here and I have been locked out twice already this morning, 15 minutes each for entering the correct password.
I'm also unable to view any of the beta post due to the issue.

I was getting this same issue earlier this morning. It seems to be working right now though.
yes seemed to clear up this afternoon after I came back.

I can't speak for anyone else but I've NEVER been able to log in permanently. I can check that "keep me logged in" box until my finger bleeds and every time I close the browser window or navigate away for more than five minutes I have to log in again. If there was ever a solution mentioned I never heard about it or it never got back around to me. And yes, I have cookies enabled and everything. Some sites I've remained logged into without visiting them for MONTHS at a time, and in one case over a year without being logged out. Somehow this forum just will NOT keep me logged.

That's how it's been for me for quite a while now. The issue this morning was something like this: Log in->Go to dev digest and see that I'm logged out. Log in again->Go back to dev digest and once again I'm logged out. Log in again->Try a different subforum and get logged out. Try to log back in but get an error. Try 2 more times. Give up.

it logs me out overnight as a matter of course... I think that's policy

Ahh, well if that's the case then yeah, I'm working as intended. I just assumed that we could stay logged into the forums more or less permanently, as is the case most other places. I never noticed anything indicating otherwise so I assumed this was the much-vaunted logout bug. I've run into the problem mentioned by Zaloopa before in the past, but no such thing this morning. Thanks for clarifying Scarlet!

To echo everyone else, everything seems to be back to "normal" now, however that may be defined.

It actually is, the logout timer is set to 8 hours. I don't always get 8 hours of sleep, and I don't always work for 8 hours at work, so when either of those things happens I find myself still logged into the forum (after a quick Refresh) when I wake up/get home.|

Which is astoundingly idiotic, really, since it completely defeats the purpose of the Remember Me function. Might as well just remove it at this point.

I don't mind the 8 hour timer because I never even get to that point. Every time my browser is closed I am logged out.

Right, that's the other problem.

Fortunately, that's easy to circumvent: just set the page to autoreload every 30 minutes.

GAH, it actually let you post?! Kidding, kidding. I am being logged out more it seems.
"I have something to say! It's better to burn out then to fade away!"
The forums never "Remember Me" when checked. I always have to log in twice as the first always says I used the wrong password(and it isn't). Also, logging in doesn't bring me to the thread I was attempting to read/respond to, it brings me to the full forum list instead.
The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.
--The Question, JLU
I'm not sure if it's just something screwy happening this morning or what, but it seems to be almost impossible for me to remain logged in from one page to the next (I'm sure I'll be logged out by the time I try to post this). Additionally, the board keeps failing to load, and in a couple instances when I've tried to log back in I've been told my password was incorrect when I'm pretty sure I typed it correctly.
Anyone else having this problem or did I just not get enough sleep last night?
