Since we're updating, I went back to IE... The advantages of Opera just didn;t outweigh the bugs.

I'm guessing that Microsoft will steal the best features long before Opera is even reasonably bug free

Problem :

In some forums, one of them is CGN, I have to re-login every time I visit. Well, if I leave and enter again after a minute then it works, but 20-30 minutes of not being on the forums forces me to login again when I come back.

Any ideas?

Check your CGN Control Panel, buddy. I had the same problem too, and then it turned out that my CP settings were set at "browsing with cookies - OFF"...

Hey, same thing here!

I was just going to complain about it in the community forum one of these days


The fact is, while I had Opera 6 I had it so that I was always logged on on Apolyton - when I surf from home ofcourse. I do not remember setting it somewhere specificaly so I am guessing it was a cookie thing.

I usually use the quick reply feature and I am on 56k modem so this was great for me.

Now, about since I have upgraded to Opera 7 the whole thing gone wild and I sometimes have to re-log in in very short periods of couple of minutes.

I have no idea what is going on. Yesterday when I went to civfanatics I discovered I was still logged in although some six months or so passed since my last log in

So, do cookies expire?

If so, I am guessing the problem is on Apolyton side, since other sites do not give me this problem. If I can confirm this I ll pettition MarkG to remove the expiry. What is it for, anyway?

If it is not cookies but Opera setup .. anyone know how I can fix it?

Man I feel dumb. It is right there in the options and seems off by default

I hope it works now

Zop :

I checked the relevant forums and they all have the "Automatically login when you return to the site? (uses cookies)" and "Browse board with cookies?" options selected as "yes".

hi ,

cookies can be made to have a certain date , the best way to get rid of them is to clear the temp internet files in the cache , clear history also , .....

have a nice day

BTW, I recommend setting History & Cache: Check Documents to Always for purposes of forumming.

Seems all is working now.

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Since Apolyton's Resurrection (should have known that Apolyton would operate on the Orthodox calendar, not the Roman one), I haven't had any problems with Opera at this site. Having to use IE now and then for a couple weeks reminded me of how retardo it is.

I installed a hotfix yesterday for XP that fixed some vulnerability in windows. As a side-effect, all websites that don't have javascript enabled now don't show images or anything. As I can't find the hotfix that caused this mess, I decided to change over to Opera. I'm liking it so far.

Is there a way to get alt-s to work in Opera, so that I don't have to click on the submit button?

I don't know where I've been without gesture back(hold right mouse, click left mouse) and forth (hold left mouse, click right)

Pressing 1 on the horizontal keypad is great for when you want to sift through pages

Skanky: Press tab and enter (do not hold any)

The trouble with mouse gestures is that they don't work anywhere except Opera. So after an hour or so of surfing, I keep trying left-right-left to close whatever app I'm in.

Sometimes it takes several tries before it dawns on me.
