I don't know if anyone else has the same problem, but I can't logout from the SnarkPit anymore. And the topics are not changing from the "read" icon to the "unread" icon at all. When I logout, I just get taken back to hte frontpage, still logged in.
It hasn't happened on any other site/forum for me.
Yes, cookies are enabled
No, I'm not using anything to block cookies
I tried emptying my cookie-cache, but it still didn't help.
I had checked the "Keep me logged in" flag, but then, I always do that.
Any suggestions anyone?

Hrm... when you logout it should delete (nearly) all of the cookies set by this site, and it works just fine for me. Have you got the time set correctly on your PC? Sounds like you might have it set to a date in the future!

i stay logged in permanently.. it will log you out by default after about 15 minutes of non-use anyways.. but next time you load your browser, you don't have to repeat the process.
my read and unread are working it seems, but take a while to switch to unread as well.
but as a last resort, you can always click the link at the bottom left that says "mark all forums read" or "mark this forum read"

The forums don't mark as read or unread to me. I have to do that myself. Seems lep was too lazy to code that when you post a message yourself you have actually read the post :rolleyes:

Okay, I manually deleted all the cookies in the folder again (looks like a few got leftover) And I can logout again. The read-unread thing works too.
shrugs Ours not to reason why, Ours but to do or die...
