FloatingFatMan Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Why is it that signing out on one device, signs me out of ALL devices? This is extremely irritating and didn't used to happen on the old forums... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Fahim S. MVC Posted March 2, 2016 MVC Share Posted March 2, 2016 Also noticed this, and would personally prefer if this didn't happen (or make it configurable in the user profile). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerFan Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I thought it was the other way around. I thought I had noticed that when I signed IN from a VM, it then forced me to log in the next time I visited from my main PC. I'll test that again...

+InsaneNutter MVC Posted March 2, 2016 MVC Share Posted March 2, 2016 I've just signed in at work, which will probably have signed me out when I get home. It doesn't always happen though, but certainly since the new forum i've never been able to remain signed in anywhere for more than a couple of days. I'd probably been signed in for over a year on multiple devices previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerFan Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) I signed in on a VM. Back on my main PC now, I'm still signed in - didn't need to sign in again. Going to try signing out now... I signed out on the VM, came back here, and was not signed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim K Global Moderator Posted March 2, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted March 2, 2016 I've noticed this randomly occurring ... but unsure what leads up to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconian Guppy Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 +1 for me it happens when I sign in from anywhere else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted March 4, 2016 Subscriber² Share Posted March 4, 2016 It happened to me just the other day - I signed in at work, came back home and was signed out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven P. Administrators Posted March 6, 2016 Administrators Share Posted March 6, 2016 Are you sure 'Remember me" is checked? I don't get this when I test the site between different browsers (including logged in/out on mobile). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrynalyne Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 This also happens to me and remember me is always checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get this when I test the site between different browsers (including logged in/out on mobile). Yes, it's checked. Doesn't seem to matter. If I sign out in one place, it signs me out everywhere. If I clean cookies on one device, I get signed out everywhere next time I sign on from that device.

techbeck Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Happens every now and then for me. Couple weeks ago, my phone asked me for my user/pass when it was saved. I entered my info again and when I went to my other PCs, I was signed out there as well. But again, that was 2 weeks ago and not been a problem since.

firey Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 This is the first time I have experienced it. Though same thing as above, signed in at work was signed out at home. Signed in on iPad was signed out at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo1911 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Is this some kind of DRM where you are supposed to sign in to X number of devices? If I sign 5-6 devices, the next device I sign in causes a random signout of the first device I used to sign in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
