You see, when i post in a thread, I sometimes get messages that I have to be logged in. But I am. I refresh the page, and I'm logged out, why? This doesn't happen continuously, it happens a lot though and it's annoying.

Help?

Now, bear with me here: are you clicking the "Stay Logged In" check box when you log in? Because otherwise the site only keeps you logged in for a short period of time.

In addition to the above suggestions (cookies, not selecting keep me logged in), it also seems there's a limit on the number of devices you can "stay logged in" with. Sometimes when I log in with my second tablet, it logs me out of my ipad. I log I that again, and it logs me out of my PC.

This is the only device where I GBAtempize. But, if I'm on a computer (which I don't have anymore) I log out from there. I'll try using the chrome app for a while and see if that works, and keep y'all updated. Thanks.

Log in status is stored in the cookies - if the cookies are periodically flushed by anything, be it the browser or some external program like CCleaner, you're going to get kicked off. The problem is definitely on your side, so check your setup. ;)

This sounds like a classic case of a network issue - are you perhaps not on a bonded line? Perhaps on an internet setup where there are two or more lines being bonded to increase speed? I know our India office does that and what it results in is potentially a different IP address each time you refresh the page. The site will see you as connecting from another location and you will automatically be logged out.

    I want a handheld gaming system with a tablet sized screen, like a 8 or10" screen, with controllers that can detach like the Switch.

    @BigOnYa i was legitimately trying to scratch my leg, this is reminding me of that cylinder post
  • Scarlet @ Scarlet:
    I don't see the buzz about a square screen personally. I think there will be a review on the site within a few weeks though if you are interested.

  • Scarlet @ Scarlet:
    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You can stretch to fit probably it's not all bad that they make it seem to be
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    People always yap about oh but you loose pixels but yeah it won't look awful either

    Filters are why you don't go on 2nd dates

    Lol nahhh it's because I usually get what they want on the first date lol
