Same here. Also after an inordinate amount of time, it would stop showing an icon for new PMs, so I left my Inbox in another tab, ready to refresh. 
And now, with "remember me" (grrrr, I hate being remembered!), I still get auto logged, I just don't see that part because it logs me back in automatically. But I can tell I was forced off, because any thread with new posts that I hadn't read yet, is marked as not having new posts anymore. |
hmm, I was going to mention that as a separate bug... but it makes sense that it is the same issue.
let's say, in the morning, I go over to the main dominions forum, after refreshing the page in the multiplayer forum. It will only show that there were a few new posts, when really there are a bunch more that i've never looked at and, for some reason, it doesn't consider new. It makes it look like the forum has been almost completely inactive.
I'm using IE 7 w/ "remember me" for these forums - but perhaps it auto-logs me out, then, when I refresh to see the latest in the multiplayer forum, it auto logs me in again, but for some reason the intervening or previous "new posts" are no longer seen as new?
one way to check would be to just let an account idle in IE 7/FF3 and then have someone else see if the forums consider said first account online or not.
