On occasion, I find it impossible to log in effectively. Here is how it goes:

I type my login and password. The screen blinks, and I am given the login page again. I can see that I am actually logged in, because the color scheme has changed. However, due to the fact that there is no LHS menu, I can't really use the site. This problem persists if I try to log in again, and it persists on all servers.

It's happening way too often for my taste, though I should notice I have the habit of hybernating my computer often, and not closing my browser or logging out. Maybe an issue with timing out from the server?

Try clearing your cookies. We've been changing around our server topology recently.

I tried clearing a bit of the personal data of my FF but it reappeared. Not sure whether you made changes after that, or whether I cleaned the cookies among other things.

Will give it another stab when I get home today. Thanks.

I've been having this problem, but each time when I've cleared my cookies, the problem has resolved.

Also check if you are able to login simply by trying twice, as per BB-Sascha's announcement.

Login twice didn't work, but cleaning the cookies worked. I'll holler back if the problem reappears.

Оkay, here is the story:

Cleared the cookies and obviously logging in worked fine. After a bit of time I got timed out, and the problem occurred again.

There is one thing I don't understand: obviously, logging in works correctly, because I can see the color scheme change from red to beige. Why do I get kicked back to the login page of the site, where it's asking for my username and password again.

If I manually try to get to something like players.aspx, I can see my squad, too, which means that on the server side I am logged in correctly. However, something with the web interface is seriously messed up, at least as far as my browser here is concerned.
