Show of hands, please; how many people have put in support tickets? I just had to re-open mine from January (followup to a closed and ignored ticket from last September) and I kept getting told "can't reproduce the issue" and "haven't had any other tickets on this".
Is anyone else having serious doubts about how this shiny new helpdesk setup handles lots of reports of what seems to be similar problems?
Yay! Every time I leave the forums I politely get signed out! I'm so happy! Yay!
HAHAHAHAHA... NOT! *grumbles*
Thing that will remain forever constant:
• The atomic weight of Uranium.
• Nothing labeled "One Size Fits All!", fits anything.
• Nothing labeled "Tear Here", will.
• That the last person in front of you in line will: 1-Turn out to have twelve million grocery items, 2- Have a mix of current and expired coupons for each item and argue the validity of the the ones that expired in 1972 as well as one that do not match the brand, 3- Will NOT help the cashier bag but will intently watch them do so with their hand drawn up to their chest like some giant brain dead Bunny rabbit, sitting on its haunches, 4- Will insist on using the Eco-friendly bags with pandas on them which they brought, 5- Will insist on an item limit in each, so they don't wear out too quickly, 6- Will insist on instructing the cashier as to how to group the items by brand, food group, color, atomic weight of main ingredients or some other insane reason, 7- Be paying by expired debit card and then turning to check... For what must be the first time in their life, 8- Will then carefully arrange each bag in the the cart by some order known only to their misfiring neurons, 9- Then begin scrutinizing the bill, 10- Call for the manager because of a 12¢ discrepancy, 11- Be parked next to you with a Poop Brown 2016 Mercedes Benz 450 GLS, 12- Their cart will be pressed into your car and blocking you in some manner, 13- Despite the fact that you ran into a friend in front of the store and had a twenty eight minute conversation (some of which highlighted your emotions towards the aforementioned individual), when you get to your car, that person will be about 1/3 finished placing their groceries inside their car. 14- Will become slower and act nervous because you are trying to load your groceries into your car from the sunroof because that idiot's clone parked too close next to you on the other side, 15- When they are done, they will place their cart in back of your car, 16- To exit the parking space they will engage in a 416 point turn similar to the evasive maneuvers preformed by Han Solo while flying through the asteroid field while being chased by TIE fighters, 17- They will hit SOMETHING, 18- You will run into that same person somewhere else and they will add at least three things to this list.
• You will desperately have to pee at the best moment during a movie and if you actually can't hold it, that person I just mentioned will be on line in front of you or somehow be blocking the entrance.
• I WILL get signed out while reading something or starting to make a post here.
Hahahaha... TRUTH!
I went in my account and chaged it..it was sorta starteling!
I'm sick and tired of the forum moving images. We can safely put 800 pixels of images across. Well 300 plus 300 is only 600, and I put a 10 space between so they aren't right next to each other. That totals 610. Looks fine when posting. But then it drops the second one down to the next line and it's got a stupid indentation (that 10 space)
But if anyone doesn't mind the stupidity of it, you can go see the free portrait backgrounds linked in my signature, in case you didn't know about them. Just ignore the wonky positioning of the backgrounds. And it CHANGES. One time they're next to each other, next time when I come back they are in separate rows. ARRRRGH. (And if any of you want to contribute free backgrounds, it's a community effort. They must be free to use, no attribution.)
Probably stated numerous times - well, here's one more, I guess
...
This forum software is horrible in regards to logins - what's the point of a "Keep Me Logged In" selection if, every time I click a link in an e-mail and I don't have the forums already open, I'm logged out of the forum when I enter? And when I log back in, I'm not taken to the forum I was in - I'm dropped into my account info and have to dig my way back. That's just nonsense.
I can't believe the security is so desperately needed in this forum that users are constantly logged out, and that the forum won't automatically log one in from saved credentials. Truly annoying. BTW, this behavior is identical on every PC I've used to connect to this site.
So interestingly I was originally one of the people who was logged out nonstop for the longest time. Lately however I haven't had this problem much, which is a huge relief. Of course now that I say that it'll probably come back...
The problem happens because we have a fusion of 2 softwares running the site. The Store, Gallery and all the rest of the secure side is run by the Magento software. The Forums are run by Vanilla software. This means that there are 2 different logins. It has been set up so that Magento is the dominant partner in the merge, So you login on the front page with your Magento identity, tell the site to remember you and then move to the forums. All is fine. However if you then go from the forums to the store again and do things on that part of the site, usually purchase something, then that appears to break the connection briefly between the two software parts for some members. So to go back to the forum it needs to log you back in to the forum, and sometimes this happens a bit slowly, so you are aware of it happening, as it knidly tells you that it is logging you in to the forums.
It appears that for some also this happens when clicking on a link in an ebot to come straight to the forums, as you are not passing through a magento doorway to get to the forum from that link, if you see what I mean.
I always use my bookmark to set up a connection through the front page before I go to my emails and check for any ebots etc, and I find I rarely, if ever, get the runaround any more.
Thanks for the info Cho. Just not sure why DAZ didn't go with a store/forum/gallery setup that was all inclusive from ONE company. The Hive does this too so their forums look and work really well but the store has that "old" feel to me and has it's own special set of bugs.... the logout issue is my only issue here truthfully. Just gets annoying as hell as many have mentioned here and in other threads..
I don't think it's ever happened that way for me. Usually crops up in the middle of continuous forum activity — opening lots of posts, reading lots of posts, replying to a few posts, and suddenly I'm abruptly faced with the usual "post does not exist" alert (if I happen to be trying to open a PC thread) or the "logging you back in" message (for any other thread). Even more confusing if I'm logged out in the act of replying, as the cryptic error message usually appears either just below or right on top of the "Post Comment" button.
Let's face it, the forum software doesn't know (or care) whether or not we're being active, it just rolls the dice every time we do something, and tosses us out whenever we roll a botch.
I second what SpottedKitty said... My standard way of visiting DAZ is to visit the forums first, read a few posts and when I run out of new stuff to read, I go over to the store to see what's new or interesting. If I visit and find I'm already logged out, I'll log in and often I get logged out without ever visiting the store... I noticed this because lately I have been pretty busy and really can only read like one or two posts and then I'll have to put down the iPad.
Often if I come back after several hours or the next day, it will have me logged in for a short while, then after viewing a post or two or going to the second page of The Commons (to locate a post from the previous day), it will log me out the moment I get to page 2... Sometimes I get logged out when I'm about to write a comment.
I don't blame the software, my comments are usually pretty obnoxious. Still it's rude... I don't think Vanilla likes me. I used to like vanilla... Especially French vanilla... Mmmmm... Häagen dazs French vanilla... On pie... Any pie...
Uh... Anyway... I'm not trying to discredit anyone, or argue, but this is my personal experience and observation... Perhaps it's tablet or iOS related or vanilla just hates me.
Vanilla WUVS you! Never forget that!
I don't know about that... It logged me out while I was reading your post... Hmmf!
Megh...
I'm starting to think "Keep Me Logged In" is more of a spiritual or metaphorical sentiment... Like "tuned in", "far out", "radiate positive vibes" or "where's the beef"... I don't think it has anything to do with being electronically logged in... It's like "Hey, bro... You know... are you like logged in to my vibes? Like cuz,I'm totally tweeting yer karma nuggets bro man"... Or something like that.
Or possibly it's a little bit of busy work for us while login, so we don't feel it was too simple...
Or still yet, maybe it's to make sure we are human and not some angry killer robot trying to hack into the account of the forumite it just killed...
Well, whatever... I'm logged in... You logged in? I'm logged in to peace man, you know... Logged into the DAZ luv vibe, with peace and happiness and pie for everybody baby... Peace and pie man... For everyone... (...Please wait while we log you out...)
Yea, like totally logged in, like sawing logs on the damned bridge that's made of vanilla ice cream with strawberries............
Did somebody say Vanilla IceCream with Strawberries
One of my favourite foods.
OMG! I LOVE YOU!
Damn it... I just scratched my screen trying to cut that out.... Stop messing with my tiny brain... It doesn't even taste like vanilla ice cream and strawberries... Just greasy pork chop fingerprints and dog drool.
HAHAHAHA.... makes one wonder how Mr M knows what dog drool tastes like?
OMG that looks good.
This is more strawberries with ice cream than ice cream with strawberries =)
Russian blueberry ice cream, anyone?
My late other half would have told you that when I am asked what I want with my strawberries I usually answer "More strawberries"
That does look yummy!

This reminds me of a meal out with my parents! They used to favour a particular chain restaurant that had a summer offer of strawberries with cream or ice-cream. I didn't like either addition (I still prefer strawberries "au naturel") so I ordered the strawberries but asked for them to be served with neither. The waitress looked a bit embarrassed, but went off with the order. When the desserts were served I saw why: "Strawberries with cream" turned out to be a large mound of spray-foam cream with half a dozen bits of strawberry poking out of it. Of course they had to give me rather more than half a dozen bits of fruit: it would have looked ridiculously tiny in the bottom of the dish otherwise. So I did rather well in getting a proper portion.
ETA: Actually my favourite dessert now is a large mound of strawberries mixed with a large mound of blueberries: bliss! (But keep that ice cream away)
To me, strawberries should be those tiny, wild strawberries. Do people even eat those in the English-speaking countries?

The next one is huge and clickable =) Quality blackberry (not frozen) and redcurrant are tricky to find in Moscow grocery stores, sadly.
I don't know if they exactly the same, but we do have some "alpine strawberry" plants - not a lot so it's an odd one here and there rather than a bowlful but they are tasty.
Wiki does say it's the same plant. It grows in the wild, in forests, so it's quite hard to gather and hence expensive to buy. But if you are travelling and run across a suitable forest patch... =) Happened only once or twice to me, but great memories =)
