Bug: Sometimes the forum thinks that you are not logged in, while you are for the puzzle pages.
Using the login box at the top of the forum pages won't work under these circumstances.
Possibly the session is timed out for as far as the forum is concerned, while you still have an active session in the puzzle pages.

Workaround: throw away your cookies and log in again.

I have not seen this behavior for myself yet. At our last release, we did change how the main site and forum interact. This could cause the effects you describe.

I'll look into it.

This never happened when using IE.Always happens with Firefox,which means the problem is not with the server.And the workaround suggested above does not work.

Maybe no way around this, but I've noticed this issue when I'm on a "puzzlepicnic.com" address for one part of the site (say, the forum), and "www.puzzlepicnic.com" for the other (say, the puzzles). So if I click a link for a puzzle at "www.puzzlepicnic.com" while in the forum as "puzzlepicnic.com", it will appear that I have logged out. So then I just change the URL and it still has me as logged in. Not sure if this could be related to this particular issue or if it is separate.

I just experienced this as well. Normally, I always reside on the puzzlepicnic.com part, and when I followed a link to www.puzzlepicnic.com, I was logged out.
