    It's not happening.

    Basically, I log in to DLP, and then, sometimes, about 5 minutes or so later (it varies, can be up to 15 mins or so sometimes, and sometimes not happen at all) I get logged out. It doesn't show me anything, but whenever I reload the page or open a new one in DLP.net, it shows me as viewing the forums as a guest, and I have to log back in. This can happen if I just have DLP open on a different window while I am doing something else, or if I am actively browsing DLP, either way. I am running Opera, btw.

    Any ideas on why this is happening, and how to stop it?

    Edit: Decided to check out Opera (not going to switch from Firefox any time soon, though it seems to have its uses). Settings>Preferences>Advanced>Cookies and checking 'accept cookies' should do the trick.

    You should click the 'Remember Me' box as well, because that will keep you logged in, also make sure you have Opera set to accept cookies from the sites you visit. Nice to see another Opera user, :3. Have you had issues with 10.51 not loading Youtube videos, I just found a fix for that yesterday.

    Cookies were always enabled, that was one of the first things I checked. Thanks for the tip about the 'Remember Me' box. Hopefully, that will do the trick.

    Unfortunately, 10.5 is not yet available for Linux, so I am still using 10.10... It's surprising because it has been some time now since 10.5 came out, so I don't know why the Linux build is taking so long. Ah well, I'll get it when I do. If I do have the problem, what was that fix you mentioned?

    Thanks, guys!

    Its a user.js. Although, since you're on Linux, I don't think you're gonna need it. Also, Operadevs are working on the issue as well.

    So yeah, the issue hasn't repeated itself today, which is pretty awesome. Looks like checking the 'Remember Me' box worked. Thanks again, Zombie!
