For the last week or so, I keep appearing to be logged out



Then when I try to click Log In, it tells me I’m already logged in.
Is this just a me thing?

Just a guess but I think that cookie notice at the bottom may provide the explanation. Without accepting cookies it can't keep you logged in. The active user has changed requiring the page to be reloaded and the cookies re-set, meaning you probably had different tabs under different sessions and it was confusing the forum. I feel like reloading the page like it said would fix this in almost all cases.
 
What about reloading the page? Are you accessing the site through a link/URL that has a session ID in the URL string?
 
Reloading usually fixes it. I don’t think there’s a session id in the URL, it’s just reloading my star army tab wherever I left off.
 
My login problems continue. This time I made sure to agree to the cookies first.

And

Despite agreeing to cookies it still doesn’t display me as logged in, but won’t let me log in.

New symptom, probably the same issue. Telling me to reload because the active user changed.
 
Great catch, Ame! Could be a cloud flare thing then.

Edit: oh. Looking back, I got that ”new” symptom in my original screenshots. Just didn’t notice under the cookie banner.
