    Default I can't log out

    Hey all,

    I am having a board issue and I don't know if anyone else is having this same one or not. If I even dare log out of the messageboards, I am not able to sign back in unless I try to re-register as Snowelf and get the error message that "This user name already exists."
    Then I can attempt to log back in and it lets me with no problem. Has anyone else had this problem. I read the majority of the posts on here and I could not find anything, but maybe I missed it?
    It's not really a problem for me so much as it doesn't bother me to be logged in all the time, but I worry that it's taking up someone else's space or something when I really don't need to. (Plus it makes it confusing for the people I pbp with...is she there...is she not there...)

    Thanks!!
    --Snowelf

    p.s. I have IE and I don't think that should make much difference, really, but just fyi.

    what happens when you try to sign back in? Do you get an error message?

    Yes, I get an error message that says something similiar to "User name does not exist". So then I just tried to register again, and that is when I get the "user name already exists" message, then I can click on log in, and it lets me right in ? ??? I've done it twice and then i just never logged out again since then.

    Thanks!

    I've never heard of this bug and I log in and out of the message boards all the time...I wonder if anyone else is experiencing it?

    No prob Winged One, that's good to know... And yea, it's weird....maybe when I close my browser it logs me out on its own?? I don't know?? That is why I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem, too. Oh well, no biggie...but at least there is a thread now if anyone else does! :) Thanks for the help!!
