What does "forever" mean?

I make sure the "forever" selection is picked every time I log in and every time I connect to the site I am asked again to log in. My Funk and Wagnal's tells me that "forever" should include the next time I connect.

It is a petty question but given some of the locations I connect from an extra click means a lot of time wasted. So is it a) Operator Error b) A revised definition of the word "forever", or 3) A glitch in the otherwise truly outstanding new format? As you can tell, I am also not very good at indexing.

Probably answer 3. This option sets the timeout for the cookie written to your system. It works for me, sometimes. But I also have to log in other times.

Now that I'm aware, I'll investigate it further.

Larry,

I too suffer from the "short forever" problem. I use Firefox 2, and am able to stay logged on on another similar site. I believe that the other site (nuwaowners.org) uses the same software as you do on this one because many of the features are the same.

Larry,
FYI, For the first time since joining this awesome website I was automaticly logged on when I connected. Thanks again for this tool.

I recently made a change which appears : to have resolved the "forever" cookie issue. I also made a couple changes which appear to have sped the website up a bit. But I'm still going to pursue a long-term speed fix, as we continue to grow everyday.

this post is kind of interesting because I'm always "logged in" directly every time I enter the site... unless I've kicked out the cookie during CPU maintenance -- but then, when I re-log, it always has come directly in without a new password log-in ... so, I don't know if I did it differently in the beginning ... but it works for me each time ...
