thanks, i did it and i'll know if it worked when i log in tomorrow.

Ellie, You'll probably have to log out. That takes you back to the log in page. Under your name and password it gives options.

ellieoop, you might also have to do a page refresh to bring up the new data

2 minutes ago i was reading the chat bd., and hit my back button and was taken back to log in. i logged in again and didn't see an option. is it now automatic or was i supposed to see that option?

Yes, when you first sign on, you now have the option for it to remember your username and/or your password.

is there a place to click that will automatically log me in?

I had it happen just now too. I have the auto login on, and refresh was at 60 min. I'm going to reset the refresh to 30 min and see what happens.

It happened again to me just now... left the page for 30 minutes plus and got logged out. Very confusing!

Infinite.
But when a session cannot be deserialized due to changes of the class signature, a server restart deletes any non-persistent user data.
Which is exactly what happened before :-D

So what is a max time you can leave BK Browser window open and do nothing and still stay logged in?

No, there was no such change.

Did you happen to restart the server in the last 20 minutes?

Why I ask is that the same thing happened to me as it did Erinity - Walked away from my desk - just over 20 minutes gone (Brainking window still up), try to then do something and find myself in guest mode.

Does the "don't remember any information" when you sign on have a short time limit?

I don't remember who requested the auto focus either, but I remember it was because they were unhappy that they had to sign in every time since the automatic login was gone..... which the auto focus only bothered me a little, so I did not complain.

But now that the automatic login is back - well then they don't need the auto focus anymore. :-)

Erinity: We were probably restarting the server at the very moment.
BBW: The auto focus was requested by someone. I don't remember who it was. But it can be removed, of course.

Why did I time out of my log in while in a game after leaving it for less than an hour? I went to make a move, and it said I was a guest.

Hey Fencer - since you have that now, can we PLEASE remove the java (or whatever) that automaticly brings the page to the front with the "Username" already highlighted and ready to be typed in.

I know it was put into place to make some of the people who missed the auto-login happy, and now that the auto-login is happy - this can go!

At least once a day (usually 2-3 times a day), when I log on, I'll click to bring up BrainKing, go to another page, start typing something only to look up and find that brainKing took over my computer and what I just typed was entered into BrainKing as a username.... making me have to re-type it again in the correct page. At least it is only on the main page - It's like that on every page on Pocket-monkey - one of the reasons I don't play there. :-)

The new form is souper (super to all the spelling buffs). Thank you, Fencer.

oooo I like the new form..........

The new form on Login Page should satisfy everyone who is missing an automatic login.

hmmmmm...*thinking*....ouch LOLOL
no we have always have the shepherds bit....but then New Zealanders are knows for their affiliation with sheep HAHAHAHAAHA

**EDIT**

You're welcome.

thank you:)

Sorry guys, this is a public board.

good:) since you removed one name from an insult.........

OK me stop too. But I was attacked first, no matter. Mine was at least tongue in cheek..not foot in mouth. LOL

I type with both hands! :o)

dang it floos...you beat me by 40 seconds!! LOL:)

me gone ;o)

wheres a moderator when you need one!

Take it to the private fellowships please.

Also amazed (edit) didn't see a parade going by and frantically run to the front of it and announce that he was now leading it. But he has been quiet on the public DB's for awhile so I guess I should leave the old codger alone.

or a threesome, cos you are all as warped as each other

Kammy maybe..but UE..NEVER!! LOL

I think you are well suited to each other LOL

What's amazing is that (edit) and (edit edit) saw it wasn't going to hold up and bailed. They are not as dumb as they look. If there was any chance of any of it being true they would have been there like ugly on ape. I'm kind of sorry Floozie didn't leave it up because it made (edit) and (edit)look like the victims of a madwoman. The only thing I will say about UE is that he was super supportive in his PM's until one day out of a clear blue sky he sent me one saying "F*** you..you messed with the wrong man. Tick Tock." I just dismissed it as the work of an unstable person. Since then some friendly one's have appeared from him so I gave up. LOL.

Scarlet I'm here. I'm so confused between the Mastermind and UE related. I left his fellowships because he attacked me first thing and I tried being peaceful in there. Then everyone was leaving over Mastermind attitude and When I heard Ue was his son I finally left

I respect you for that..

Thanks..

LOL I hadnt noticed you were moderator till you said that Naf ;o)

Scarlet and Steve. This is a difficult call, and I am trying to be fair to all parties.

I do believe that hacking or using someone elses ID should not be taken lightly. And if it is being done that it should be delt with properly. I feel that this is a very serious accusation.

From what I am reading in your post SR is that you believe this is happening to members here and want it to be exposed. I totally agree with exposing that there may be a big problem, but I'm not sure that I agree with accusing people of things like this on public boards.

I am the first to say that I don't know any more than what I have read here. I also don't know the parties involved all that well. It could be true, it could be false; but in any case I don't feel that the names should have been posted, so I am editing. Sorry.

You are too quick to believe what you are told ScarletRose

To Whom All It May Concern:

Last evening I learned a shocking discovery. A friend of mine from this site was having majors problems with his account. And, after speaking to him I realized his account was being operated by someone else who had learned his password. It was starting to become clearer to me now after I had been so confused especially the last few days. Someone figured out his password, and was playing certain games. As well as had written some threats in which they sent out privately. He was really concerned last night since he had confronted his son and others who had access to his computer.. His son was also a bit miffed since his account was going through the same confusion..

What is it like for opponents and friends of an ID who is getting in a sense, Hacked into.. Or for a better phrase, taken over by another person?

Endless waiting for a return of the game you are playing with them yet you see them online. Perhaps you are chatting with them and have asked them a question which you assume you would get a quick reply over..

Another sign is unanswered messages.. Seems the one taking over will delete those messages that come in asking why they aren’t answering the questions directed to them.

I also noticed a game invite I sent to him ended up being deleted several days ago, after he requested another challenge …

Glancing over the Boards and seeing either jumbled posts or posts that were written so out of character. I witnessed several times players angered by him not responding back on the boards when they saw his name was apparently online..

I also witnessed his son being on the site at the same time he was. How is this possible when they even state they use the same puter..

The frustration I heard from both he and his son last night while I was TALKING on my mic to him and HEARING him reply back, that messages were getting contorted, erased, sent and posted that he nor his son had any control of.

Who are the ID’s I am talking about.. They are the ID’s known as MASTERMIND and Universal Eyes.. Who is the one suspected.. ?? (edit) aka (edit) aka (edit) aka (edit).. Yes.. I said (edit) since Al (MASTERMIND) was playing checkers against her and noticed some of her moves were more like that of someone more experienced in the game.. Such as (edit) experience is known to be…

What made me pick through the confusion and not quickly judge or get angry at MAESTERMIND or UE? My experience.. Several years ago a dear friend of mine at another game site was struggling with the same thing.

Why I am posting this instead of AL or his son.. Because, no sooner will he post it it will be tampered with when they log off by the one who is accessing their accounts unauthorized to do so.

An apology also is extended out to Bumble, unfortunately you had been subject to the quick finger of (edit) booting you out.. NOT MASTERMIND.. (edit) must have been in his account during that time..

Another apology goes out to Skyking.. AL was asking what happened to make you up and leave.. He is just as confused as anyone else here..

And Stevie, I was asked to give you an apology as well. Universal Eyes account is going through the same problems.. Mike said he went into his account and saw all the angry pm’s and responded too quickly back, But he himself did NOT write those threats to you.

I think AD also received something.. And appologies were also extended to anyone who may have received a threat or a comment.

Thanks for listening..

ScarletRose..

Hey!!! California is great inbetween earthquakes. LOL

That's not brainking...it's life in California. :o)

You must set your time zone in Settings and click on the submit button.

Can't set them so they stay fixed, each time I log in, it's a different time zone, What am I doing wrong?
