Anyone else having trouble logging in to the forum?
Lately I've been having trouble logging into the forum - it'll give me the 'number of login attempts has been exceeded' message and I have to do a CAPTACHA as well as entering my password. Has anyone else been experiencing this? I looked up the issue on the phpBB support forums and it says it's probably because someone's trying to log into the account and guessing at the password o_x Remember to use strong passwords, everyone!

I keep mine logged in all the time, but it'd be scary and stuff if someone tried to steal your account. D8

That's creepy... I also keep mine on the automatically logged in although sometimes when I follow a link from an email notification it wants me to log in still even though I should be able to view that section of the forum without being logged in. I think that just has to do with following links though, because if I come in through the board index everything is fine.

The email links lead to samanayrs.net, so if you're always logged in on samanayrs.com you will need to log in again.. I think it's some kind of cookies thing XD

ah, yes, that makes sense. I hadn't even thought about that.
