| We've made a number of changes to our authentication code. This benefits us by having increased security. Unfortunately, it's also causing some unintentional session and cookie issues. We're aware of a number of the issues, but please post here concerning any login/cookie/logout issues you run in to. It helps if we know what country you're from too (we're aware of some lingering issues with Singapore.) We plan to rollback the forum this coming Monday. A number of delays have stopped us from running it earlier. Sorry for the inconvenience and the posts we'll lose in between now and Monday. |

| Nice job stepping up the security. But goddamn, I'm going to miss some wonderful posts when the rollback happens. |

| I'm dead. Don't come looking for me. |
| Btw is the rollback gonna affect our lists too? |

| Will this bring back the lost threads in the shows and clubs? If it will, then losing posts from now until Monday is okay with me. Those can be easily made again unlike those posts that were made weeks ago and had some good content in it. What specific time and timezone will this happen? There's still an issue though with the "Find All" thing in my profile for all my forum posts. Nothing shows up when I click it. Was this affected by the hacking and the security issue fix? Just pointing it out here... Thanks for all the hard work Xinil! |

| I'm getting the log out message already 3 days in a row. Seems, my password is being reseted since I change it and every next days it's back to the old one but today nor my new nor my old passawords where working and I had to request a password change. I'm from Brazil. |
 |
| For the last couple of days, whenever I start my browser and open this site, it tells me that there is a problem with the cookies so I should clear them and login again. I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina. And I have not changed my password for ages. |
| And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be... |
| Whenever I reconnect to the Internet (I'm on a dial-up) and open MAL it displays the 'Clear your cookies' error. Perhaps it won't recognize the cookie if my IP is changed? I'm from Romania. EDIT; Oh, and yeah, the 'Keep me logged in' option doesn't let you log in at all, at least in FF. |

As it turns out, living was a punishment...  |

| Cookie logout: One time on Thursday, three times on Friday Where: Brazil, with Firefox and Opena (I only use these) Note: MAL sometimes is geting too slow, YouTube and others looks normal here. belatkuro said: There's still an issue though with the "Find All" thing in my profile for all my forum posts.

| Yeah it worked for me as well before all of the attacks started on Nov. 21st |

| It worked in 2010 for me. (another account) |
| It was working when they returned the search function again a few months back. But the "Find posts by user" function stopped working a few weeks back while the "find threads started by user" and the keywords search are still working. That's why I'm asking if it was somehow affected by the recent attacks and the security change. |

| I'm from the UK and I am having cookie troubles. I can log in fine, but it doesn't keep my session if I ask for MAL to log me in automatically. By the way, how is this going to affect this week's FAL results? |

| Good work guys~ Oh, and I get the cookie problem as well, but I just log in like normal. And I'm in Australia. |
 |
| Thanks for the hard work. Now, I'll just wait for the rollbacks. |
| What makes you really feel secure is knowing that somebody more pathetic than yourself exists out there. |
| Oh dam, rollback on monday? It'll be good to have the old threads back but we're sure gonna lose a lot of new threads as well. |
| Thank you for all your hard work! :D ^.^ |
 |
| After hearing this news, it seems someone has brought out the necromancer in him. |

| It's just the forum posts that is being rolled back, am i wrong? |

| I'm a little confused. By "now and Monday" means everything will be restored the way it was with forums around Wednesday morning? In other words, it's the forum posts/threads that will be lost between the upcoming Monday and last Wednesday? because that's when it started. |

| Nice to know the expected day of the rollback. Thanks for the effort. |
