problem :(

[lama]

hiii all ..

i wonder if this problem is happening only with me !! ..

i love the energetics forum ..and i got myself registered a while ago .. but .. i have a problem participating smoothly coz.. i keep getting kicked out!! ...

it goes like that ... when i first log in, every time i go to another page (browsing through the forum) i get logged out .. i try to post a reply in a thread --> i get logged out and i have to log in again in order to be able to post what i want to post .... i try to send a private message --> i get logged out and i have to log in again to be able to send it ... and even when i try to log in again i have to keep trying several times until it lets me in ..

its bugging me so much and its challenging my will to participate ...

I had to struggle to post this

What's going on ? Please help.

Thanks a million

getting logged out

Hi Lama,

I haven't heard of this before. It sounds like you are timing out but we have the time out set at a long time so that is unlikely you are getting timed out. Would you happen to be on dial up connection?

[lama]

no, im not on dial up connection ...

well Aaron .. i don't really know what happend .. but after i posted my problem - it got solved !!

and now im happily gliding through the threads ... and saying all i wanna say with no problems what-so-ever

well .. maybe it needed me to jump-start my participation so it could treat me right lol ..

anyway .. im happy now .. no worries Thank You.

Hi Iama & Aaron,

On some forums these problems can be related to the forum member's own ISP (internet service provider) & whether they radically change their users IP address during a session. If you experience difficulties like you described again one way of trying to confirm if it may be ISP related is to actually use another computer with a different ISP. Eg at another location, (not a different computer on the same network as this will use the same ISP).

This info is passed on via my husband as I am no techo with computers. He has come across this problem before with phpBB2 forums but he says take this as a suggestion only, as he is not familiar with this particular forum (vBulletin).

Regards,
Sharyn

Thank You so much Sharyn for the info. ...

i'll keep an eye on what goes on .. it's so annoying when it does that by the way ...

and thank you to your husband for sharing what he has to say

Lama, timing out?

Lama, is it still happening?

[lama]

Lama, is it still happening?

Aaron, you're such a sweetheart

to tell you the truth, yes, it still happens .. but on a less frequent and annoying basis .. but it does happen every day ... thing is .. im not really linking it to something specific .. i thought and was almost sure it was because several ESM pages were open together .. so what i would do is ..when i go to the home page and then click the link that takes me to the forum, i have to make sure to close the home page before logging in ..and it would go through happily with no problems ... until it just cuts me off at a certain point (when i try to reply or write something new) ... but its ok .. im coping .. its not as frequent as it used to happen initially .. plus now im attached to the forum so i'll be fighting the circumstances and i'll never feel down or quit participating because of such trivial issues that i can overcome easily
