Everytime I come to BF i have to go in a manually delete any traces of BF from my cookies to be able to login. I have read to instructions relating to this to no avail. This is the only site I have problems with. If nothing can be done then so be it, I will not be leaving BF. Just thought i'd give this a shot. Thanks.

If someone else could have access to the computer you're using you should log out when you leave, which means you'll have to log in when you return. Otherwise you can just stay logged in all the time, and the system will recognize you by your cookies and you'll never have to log in.

It's possible for cookies to get corrupted and then you have to delete them, but every time you come to Bladeforums? I don't know what's going wrong here. Tell us exactly what happens and maybe we can figure it out.
 
Well if I visit the site I have to go in and delete all BF related cookies. If not then I cannont log in. I enter my credentials and it tells me im logged in and will be redirected but then I get the same page still asking for me to log in. This same thing happens if after I get myself logged in then leave the site just by typeing in a new URL, then come back, all without closing the browser window. It still wants me to log back in. Everything worked great for about 2 weeks after I signed up, then the problems started but its only a minnor annoynce. Like I said if nothing can be done then thats ok, I can still login and enjoy the site. Thanks for the help.
 
I do do that, plus my browser remembers also.
Thanks for trying to help, I appreciate it.
 
I think it's a security issue. Your browser or an ad blocker or a firewall doesn't know Bladeforums is supposed to have permission to use cookies and javascript.
