    So, in this past week, PriusChat the website is not remembering me, even though I've not changed my browser settings, and I have the "remember me" box checked.

    also, when I log in, it tells me that I've entered incorrect information, that I've used 1 of 5 of my logging attempts... and I go straight to my CP, and am able to post, read, etc. (oh, and it tells me that I'm logged in as RaeVynn).

    So, what's up with the poor memory?

    Maybe you're just not very memorable?

    I never show being logged in from the home page. I have to go to forums or view new posts before it remembers me.

    I think PC uses cookies and sometimes gets confused. I have the same problem, Rae Vynn, if I've shut down my browser. When it asks me to log in, I just hit the Forums link and then do what I want, I'm already logged in. If I try to log in by entering my name and password, I get the log in error and warning. Try ignoring it and just go to Forums.

    Okay... I fixed it.

    Clear cookies. I forgot that when I clear private data in FireFox, I had unselected the cookies option. Duh.

    So, if anyone has this issue, it's a bad cookie.

    I think I had a bad ham sandwich once but that didn't hamper my ability to log into Priuschat.

    I'm glad you didn't toss your cookies.
