Login/Cookies Issue
This is nothing big and has probably been addressed before, but since I'm using Mozilla Firefox, whenever I click Post on the side bar, it takes me to the forums, but I'm not "logged in." I've turned the cookies on for remembering me. What's happening is Post links to http://giantitp.com/<etc>, but apparently the cookie check occurs in http://www.giantitp.com/<etc> and Firefox is unable to read giantitp.com as www.giantitp.com. This has been occuring for a long time, so I'm used to it, but I hope something can get changed so that my visits may be more convenient.

Re: Login/Cookies Issue
I use Firefox too, and I have the "remember I'm logged in" thing on, but I've never had that problem.
So many puns, so little time.&&&&

Re: Login/Cookies Issue
A friend of a friend was recently have this trouble with www.3eprofiler.net...I couldn't figure out what was different between my Firefox and his. I have my Firefox set to ask me the first time I enter a site whether or not to let it set cookies. If I click yes, I never have any troubles logging on...that's all I can tell you.

Re: Login/Cookies Issue
(This might help you too, Adghar)
Actually, that doesn't matter, either (mine's pretty ancient, and I'm on 56k..woo hoo)
Go to "my computer"
Go to "control panel"
Go to "internet settings/options"
Go to "Privacy" Tab
Lower the bar to "Medium/Low/Accept all Cookies"
Currently, mine is at "Accept all Cookies" and I've been having no problems.

3. Exceptions: Make sure that www.giantitp.com says "Allow," not "Allow for session"
4. Last but not least, when you do log in to the site, I presume you check the box that says always remain logged in?
