This is the second false alarm o..o'

I would wait for the testing branch to report before making official announcements =D
Stop the sequels high-ranking stupidity.
Group franchises in Top Anime page.
Because Gintama is just "one" anime and not 5.

I cant say the cookie thing was an issue to begin with. The current bug is rather obnoxious though.

Well, you can always use some Extension or Addon (e.g.: Tab Mix Plus) to automatically reload a single Tab like every 2X (20, 21, etc.) Minutes (which hopefully shouldn't be a Problem).

Well hopefully you guys will be able to fix that 30 minute auto logout then. I'm still getting that when I tell it to keep me logged in still.

In any case I'm almost outright tempted to attach one of my accounts to this to make it easier to drop by here though.

I have come up with a temporary fix for logging out, if someone is interested please look underneath:

1. Install add-on/extension for your browser:

Firefox
Chrome
Opera

2. Restart web browser if it's required by add-on/extension.
3. Make sure you are logged in and have open MAL tab.
4. Set add-on/extension to reload tab/web page up to every 15 minutes maximum.
5. Now you can go grab some coffee and come back after some time and you will be still logged in :)


I've been doing exactly that with TabMixPlus. I just leave my profile tab open and set it to auto refresh every 15min (it logs out at 20, not enough to finish 1 episode).

1 refresh every 15min is not going to cause problems.

Hence why I didn't suggest an exact Time. Also, it should be a pretty generous Time. Every Web Server should be able to handle a single, automated, regular Reload after this much Time between the Requests. If that weren't the Case, then I would have been already banned, especially sometimes for opening like 50+ Tabs and manually reloading some of them one after another.

btw.: You can really stay logged in without the same IP now. So hopefully, this little Workaround won't be that much of a Problem until the Issues get fixed.

Not really as when you browse through forum you do it as well for example by going to next page or opening new tab for instance. Anyway if you would know that DDOSING is only when you constantly send thousands of packages all the time, one after another. So to answer your problematic answer, no you can't DDOS website by sending one or few packages to refresh website every 15 minutes.

Let's hope we'll get 10 more worthless social media buttons as compensation when it turns out fixing the worsening of the log out issues will take 2 years to fix. How long has it been now since Crave left without a single positive change made?

This is insane. Maybe they could, you know, up the Timer for inactive Sessions to a more manageable Number.

Whoever thought 30min of Inactivity is a useful time-limit, when single Episodes of Shows last ~24min or longer.

Look at the OP, they didn't think it was a good amount of time. It's an unintended bug.

Sometimes it takes me 30 mins to watch sub because some parts are fast / 2 people talking at the same time or I just pause a lot to look at the background.

The Intervals you need to refresh are getting shorter and shorter...

Before, 25 Minutes were more than enough, now I'm already getting logged off at around 15 Minutes of Inactivity.

Update May 8:
You may be logged out after a period of inactivity (roughly 20-30 minutes). Seems a bug still needs to be squashed. They're working on it and will let us know as soon as it's fixed, but it may take a day or two. Please bear with us for now and we'll let you know when it's fixed.
Since you stated a "day or two" It makes me less patient, but I'll give it a week. In the mean time I'm waiting for another update.

Exactly this. It wasn't perfect before, but at least much better than the current thing -_-

I hope there won't be anymore of such "improvements" in future. If it works, just keep it. No need to try to add fancy gimmicks.

It is super annoying you know? :/
It didn't happen before, and now I must log in every time on every device which I'm using.
And could you tell me, why you using IP check in cookies? It is ridiculous.
