I AM GETTING VERY UPSET!!!! Ever since last weekend when the website was being serviced for regular maintanence or whatever, my posts are getting lost and it's very irritating. Is there now a time limit to finish what you are writing? If I have a long message, it allows me to complete writing it, but when I press submit, it reverts back to the Log In page. This is so exasperating, I cannot tell you how I feel, but I think Alex may have mentioned that he is going through the same thing. Will someone PLEASE FIX IT PRONTO! Thank you very much.

No problem here RWolf, but that sounds a bit odd.....

have you tried the obvious...cookies etc ?

I've gotta find someone to walk me through something like that - I suck at that kind of stuff!

So you haven`t knowingly changed any settings or installed any security/cleaning software recently...or even updated anything ?

It just sounded a bit odd, as when you said that you get taken back to the login page...it`s as though it wants you to log in again...

my initial thought was that your "allsparks.com" cookie(s) were getting trashed.....usually best to rule out the obvious first ;-)

The times I`ve tried to fix something that I thought was going to be a complex operation turned out to be staring me right in the face.

What browser is it ?

I think what happened was that I was notified I had a PM through my Yahoo email and pressed the link that got me to allsparks and logged on to read & respond. The foul up must be there, but I'll try again directly from here to see if it takes care of the problem. Thanks, Efad for your input.

I had a cookie problem a while ago and it nearly drove me to pc torture.
I kept getting logged out of everywhere (in FireFox)....
could I find the problem ? NO !

Turns out, I had updated CrapCleaner and it was automatically cleaning FFox cookies out....took me about 4 days to figure that one out :-)
