LOGIN TIMEOUT
A few people have reported that they would be logged out after being inactive for some time, at bankrollmob.com. We've solved that issue now being introducing cookies to our login system. If your browser is having cookies enabled (and it should, they are not harmful !!), then you will "never" be logged out - unless you click the "Logout" button or you close down the browser window.
AUTO-LOGIN
Also, some people asked for an auto-login feature, so they wouldn't have to type in their username and password whenever they visit BankrollMob / Forum. There, you have it
Go to your Mob account and click the "edit"-button in the upper right corner. From the list, select "toggle auto-login" and enable auto-login. It will keep a cookie at your computer forever (well, 2 years, actually). As long as you don't click the "logout" button then you will always be logged in, whenever you visit www.bankrollmob.com - just remember NOT to use the auto-login feature if you are on a shared computer !!
Please let us know (in this thread) if you are experiencing some weirdness with the above changes.

I use to play a text based war game and it would sign me out after 15 min so I just used an auto refresher so I wouldn't be logged out lol(people would be scared to attack me when I'm online).
BTW, windows asked me if I want to save password when I first signed up so I don't need the auto login but I guess some people don't have the "remember password" feature. But maybe if I delete cookies than I have to retype password, I don't know, I forget.

Sweet! I have actually thought about this, as I got logged out after like 30min or something. Pretty annoying sometimes. So, no more annoying log outs then!

i always wanted the auto login feature because its an arse ache and im also a lazy arse so good work brm you save me atleast 10 seconds a day now wooot.
Thanks. Although I used to write for each inward login and password, a feature often helps, because they do not have anything to enter. I am sure it will be convenient for most users.

another nice addition into improving the site. it's great that it has been finally activated. though it would be better to just have a check box beside the log on button to enable it.

im2good4u, "Enable it" - do you mean the autologin? If yes, then this option was placed "somewhat hidden", so it would be possible to properly describe the consequences of having auto-login enabled.
