I've seen this happen usually when left logged in for longer periods of time - it's like the cookie isn't getting set correctly - let me do some research and see if I can't nail down the "why" of it.

I've also experienced this in the past, prompting login almost every time a link is clicked and definitely not seeming to be tied to how long the account's been logged in.

I've tried a cookie adjustment - please continue to test and let me know if it seems resolved.

It's the same if not worse for me. Logs me out every time I click a link, and sometimes requires me to log in twice before it sticks for that one click. (Hopefully it won't log me out when I click "Submit.")

I'm trying to reproduce any example of the problem here and finding myself unable to. Can you give me more details?

Are you accessing via Firefox on a PC? Mac? Linux? Android Tablet? iOS Tablet?

What version of Firefox are you running?

Are you running any extensions/plugins that might do anything to cookies?

Can you verify that you're allowing cookies from masquerade.endogaming.net?

PC running Windows 7, Firefox 31.6.0, I've got Adblock Plus but made allowances for endogaming, and definitely allow cookies.

I'll see if I can find an older version of FIrefox to try with - are you able to run a more recent version?

...Huh. I only use Firefox when I login from work, so I thought that was the most recent version. I'll update it when I'm in on Tuesday and see if that fixes the problem (and mutter about the update client not keeping the browser up-to-date).

All updated and the problem persists. Seems to be every 3ish clicks now, though.

Are you using SSL or non-ssl? (https:// or http://)

Non-SSL.

EDIT: I haven't encountered the problem today.
