Brave is a derivative of Chrome which for some reason doesn't work well here. I am using Pale Moon which is an offshoot of firefox and it does kick me out but only after about 3 minutes...so I have to learn to copy if I am posting something long. Could be the Cloudflare settings as well so I will look at that...

For now I would recommend NO CHROME.

When I go to "post a reply" write something and then hit "Submit", it asks me to log in and when I do, it brings me back to the page but without what I wrote. However, if I just hit "back" until I reach the previous "post a reply" page again, my comment is still there and I can submit just fine, lol

And I am using Chrome....

I have the same issue. I have gotten into the habit of writing my whole post, then selecting all, copying it, hit submit, curse even though I'm prepared for it, log in, hit paste, curse more. The times I forget to copy, well, the cursing is coupled with yet more cursing.

WTF is Cloudflare? Sounds like TP induced hemorrhoids.

Anyone else missing the vertical navigation bar on this site? I'm using Chrome and it disappears. Not a big deal as I can scroll with the mouse wheel but I just find it odd. It will be there one minute but not the next. Window is maximized, so it's not just off screen. Just kind of weird.

I've heard that an updated Chrome version has been fucking with UIs.

Thanks. Tried to see what version I'm using and it auto-updated, so maybe now I'll have worse problems. :lol:

Updated to Windows 11 and my auto-log out issues are terrible now. Chrome makes me log in after almost every time I click anything. But funny enough, I left the site a few hours ago and came back- to see I was still logged in. :lol: I used to get booted after like 1 minute of inactivity.

This is all annoying.

Yeah I fucking hate Windows 11 so far. Much as I get annoyed with MacIntosh OS I might finally make the switch soon.

I was a Mac user for a long time, then work was all Windows and for school I had a bunch of Windows Only programs that I needed to run so I got a Windows laptop. Also needed one that was waterproof so I got a Toughbook. Been Windblows since. Still have a Mac at home but I have to say- Windows has gotten more user friendly and Mac is less so now. Strange flip.

A few years ago I tried to update my email address on my profile on OTP and ever since then my account turned into "inactive". I have emailed the admin several times since then but no response. Finally I decided to create a new email just to get back here, however I would love to have my old handle (VHF vs V H F) and account restored being an oldtimer original and all. So who has the ability to do this...is it EL? Please help!!!

And it's great to see you all still at it...I miss reading and posting here. The old Face Off gang still rocks!

There should be a database setting. It may not be turned on to allow updating email. Admin should be able to go in and populate his email field and do an update allowing him access. You may have to create a new password for him.

So who is the admin in charge of this? I assume chuck is not around anymore? If he isn’t, someone should fix the contact email on OTP. As Foggy pointed out, and from my experience of being a webmaster in years past, it should be an easy fix get my old account up and running.

Any help here is appreciated…
