what? me?
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Did anyone ever work out why they are getting logged out all the time, because now it is happening to me on both my Mac laptops, using firefox.

Have any/all of you tried deleting your b.org cookies & then logging in again? (And also make sure it is in your preferences as a site that you'll accept cookies from, and all that jazz.)

Yep, afraid so.

Boo. I use Firefox on a Mac at home and haven't had any problem staying logged in lately, so I'm inclined to think it's something to do with settings or preferences... I can look at my setup and try to compare but of course I'll be out late tonight.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Unfortunately I've never had this problem, so I've never been able to troubleshoot it.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Try this:
Log in
Go to Set Profile
Set Remember Me to No
Save the change by clicking OK
Log out
Close the window, open a new browser window, log back in.
Go to Set Profile, set Remember Me to Yes, click OK.
Close the window, open a new browser window to b.org
Are you still logged in? Probably. Until it happens again.

I tried that one too, but I will just keep playing with the cookies until I hit on the right combo, I guess.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
If you find the magic fix, Perkins, please post so I can find it too. Still getting logged out at least once a day.

For whatever it's worth:
I'm on a Mac running 10.6.4, with Firefox 3.6.10. In my preferences under privacy: remember browsing history (for 1 day, so I can't see that being the issue) and accept cookies. Under security: remember passwords (with some exceptions, but this obviously isn't one of them). And under tools I have private browsing turned off (which seems obvious, but I don't remember what the default was, so... it's something to check). I poked through all the settings and didn't see anything else that could impact logins, but I'm sleepy and probably stupid, so if all of that matches I'll look again after sleepy times.
