1. You click the link that deletes your cookies.
2. You log in as described above
3. You are logged out after doing...what?
4. What is your indication that you are logged out? Do the forums say you're logged out? Is it in the Marketplace?
5. Do you try to refresh your screen in the forums, or post, and test if you are actually logged out?

I don't log out - that's the whole point - I want to stay logged in! I only know I have been logged out the next time I try to use RCU. The only indication that I'm logged out is when I try to access RCU again and I get the banner that says "Do you want to create an account" (see post 7). I am actually logged out because I can't post or see any of my subscriptions. I am clearly logged out but I get no formal indication of moving from 'logged in' to 'logged out'. The only thing that happens between being logged in and then not being logged in is that the browser is closed at the end of my session.

Check your browser to be certain it is not dumping cookies when you close a window. That would cause it.
Login is *cookie based* on RCU guys.

Sorry but as many people that are having issues over numerous os its not on or end. I just came back today and same thing, however when you click here to clear cookies it took me to another screen that did not have the login name and password. So i go to different screen, login, and it shows im still not logged in.
Then i log back in. It shows im logged in. I go to airplane forum and it says im no longer logged in.
please fix this. This is only sight i have issues with.

Don't know if this will help but I'm based in the UK and am usually still logged in when I bring up RCU in the morning. I mostly stay logged in during my morning / early afternoon but I can guarantee to be logged out after 3pm my time i.e. when a good part of the USA is up and active. This may be completely irrelevant but thought I'd toss it in just in case.

I've had this problem repeatedly,, 3-4 times at least over the last couple years, again today. The best solution I found is to manually erase all RCU cookies and browsing history,, then the "log in" holds until what ever sets it off again happens, typically its months before it happens again.
good luck all.

Log in problems AGAIN
After a couple on months without problems I could not get logged in yesterday pm. [ 3rd September. ]
Same old Same old Asks me to log in. Click on log in and go straight to my profile page so it knows who I am. Go anywhere else and it is back to the log in page.
Did the 'cookies' thing but no change.

I do not expect you to fix it Ken but am just reporting it FYI
However it is a real longstanding issue which must be driving members to competing forums.
I visit a number of forums on a regular basis and never have similar log in issues. The tech guys need to fix this.

Horse pucky I've done all that and the same thing happens. I can come back to the site for days and it logs right in then out of the blue I cannot log in to the actual forums no matter what. Even if I clear everything cookies, cache etc. everything in history then close the browser and try again. It will go as far as my personal info page but if I attempt any forum it tells me I am not logged on. Sometimes I can go to the market place instead then from there sometimes I can access the forums. Most times I just go to other RC forums and a day or two when I come back I can log on. It’s intermittent and inconsistent. Happens with my home network on 3 different computers with 2 different operating systems. It happens when I am tethered to my phone on a completely different IP and a third operating system. Two separate IPs windows xp professional, windows 7 and windows 8 it’s not the PCs or the operators it’s your end. I've tried all your tips and tricks and nothing changes so RCU isn't my go to site any longer all the other sites there are no issues what so ever.

I totally understand and feel you pain. It is a real PITA. I have noticed this myself a few times as well, but normally I just chalk it up to the fact that I access RCU from about 8-9 different computers each week so I don't worry about it too much. I'll shoot an email to Paul so that he knows you are still having problems.

When this happens the only thing that works for me is going to my Browser (Chrome) Settings and manually delete all RCU cookies. Not too hard to do really, but a little bit of a pita to just "have" to do it.
WTH, I've been on RCU since before it was RCU,, I'll tough it out until it completely dies..
good luck

I was trying "Post 22" aka log off, log on,,didn't work, half the (old site) site would say I was logged on, new forums say I'm logged off,,,
