Can't Log in to Forum

[ZaKoeske]

For some reason, I can no longer log-in to this forum with my old name zkoeske. The username and password are correct and when I enter them, it says, "Thank you for logging in" but then I won't actually be logged in. I'm fine using another name I just found it to be quite strange. Maybe someone could help me out?

I think it was a temporaray problem and is now fixed becasase I couldn't log in earlier.

let me see what is going on with your account. I will check back.

There is nothing wrong with your account. Try re-logging in. Should work.

happened to me because the tick off box "remember me " was unticked - as soon as I re ticked it worked fine!

Ok. This is the 2nd new name (previously zkoeske and zakoeske) I've had to make because I can't log in with either of my old names now. I've tried probably 50 times with both names now for the last few days. I'm sure that as soon as I log out with this name I just created I will no longer be able to log back in so I'm going to try to describe what is happening in as much detail as possible and hopefully somebody will be able to help because I'm running out of email addresses to use for new log ins.

When I access the forums I first go to baseballmogul.com. Then, I click the link for the Forums. From there, I can read all of the threads that I please, however I cannot log in. In the top right corner of the screen I see a log in for username and password with a checkable box that says Remember Me?

When I enter my username and password, I get a new screen that is titled "Redirecting" and it says "Thank you for logging in, zkoeske" after a couple seconds it takes me back to the same forum screen with the log in at the top right corner. However, instead of it saying "Welcome, zkoeske" there are just the blank boxes for username and password still there. If I attempt to post on the board, it says that I am not logged in and must do so. When I try to log in again. The same thing happens. It always tells me I am logged in, but then it reverts me right back to the initial screen which says I need to log in again.

I have tried checking the Remember Me box and leaving it unchecked. Neither thing works. If I click on the "my account" label to the left of the log in it will take me to my account and it recognizes me as being signed in. Also, if I look at the bottom of the forum boards where it shows the current people who are signed in and viewing, my name is listed. So every indication is that I am being recognized as being logged in, except when it comes to actually typing in the forum. I really hope someone will be able to figure this out for me because I enjoy being able to contribute to the BM community.

click on remember me. You might have a cookie problem.

try this good program.

www.firefox.com

[zakkoeske]

I have been clicking on remember me and it hasn't worked. I also currently use firefox.

[boomboom]

try IE7, does that do the trick?

[zakkoeske]

I am trying to download IE7 but it doesn't seem to be actually doing anything. I tried using Netscape, which I do have already and it didn't work for me

In Firefox, press Ctrl-Shift-A. That should bring up the Add-On's screen (if not, there is a menu item for Add-On's in the Tools menu).
What add-on's are you currently using?

[zakkoeske]

In my add-ons all I have is Talkback

[ohms_law]

OK, open Tools -> Options, click on the Privacy tab, and then look at the Cookies section. Do you have "Keep Until" set to "They expire", "I Close Firefox", or "Ask me every time"?

[zakkoeske]

It's set on They Expire
