    It's been happening for the last 24 hours or so. I'm having to log in every time I visit the site, regardless of the fact that I'm ticking the 'keep me logged in' option every time.

    Previously, I only very rarely have to log in, so I assume there's some sort of glitch in the system (or at least with my login).

    Intrigued as to whether anyone else is having the same issue.

    Had the same issue on my laptop for a couple of weeks recently. No issues on my iPad or phone but seriously infuriating despite not being a massive issue.

    Just seemed to have randomly stopped doing it when on my laptop earlier today.

    Was happening to me for about a month. I tried all sorts to correct it but nothing worked. I began to learn to live with it but it stopped doing it, for no reason that I could explain. If you discover an explanation I'd be intrigued to know what it is.

    It does it all the time on my phone, but never on my PC/Laptop.

    Weird.

    Happened to me a couple of months back and was so infruiating, particularly as I have it set to dark mode.

    Someone else suggested that I clear the cache in Chrome - Google it as the procedure differs depending on phone or desktop version and that did solve it for me.

    I was hoping to see @Stahlrost comment on this, something to the effect that... I keep having the same problem, especially when I'm writing something really important such as whe

    On your PC/laptop have you activated “keep me logged in”? Try logging out of that and then try your phone again. I found that I couldn’t be permanently logged in on two devices or servers maybe, simultaneously but I could access both.

    I had a similar issue recently in FF. I click 'clear data' in settings and it's worked fine ever since.

    Anyone had notices saying they've been quoted and not being able to access these posts where you've been quoted?

    Update: similar to others this seems to be an issue that's related to a particular device - in my case it's the laptop I use at home. No similar issues on my mobile or another PC that I've tried, but still getting it on the laptop.

    Will attempt to clear cookies/history, etc to see if this resolves it.

    I appreciate everyone's responses on this. Thanks.

    I think that's when someone quotes you but gives up on the answer, then later quotes someone else on the same thread without deleting the original quote. They post, you get the notification, the author realises what they've done and edits out the first quote. You rock up, see the notification but the quote no longer exists.

    Do you have setting on you device to delete cookies every time you close the browser or summat like that?

    Or are you not accepting cookies. Think the site leaves something in your browser to remember you. If this is being removed or not allowed you’ll have to keep logging in

    Nothing like that, and it's the only website that's affected by this. Some forums time you out after a while, so there's an occasional need to log in again, but this is something different.

    My computer doesn't mind cookies but I don't think it liked the pint of milk I gave it too much.
