Constantly logged out?

Actually tripleblessed that is exactly what I do.

We seem to have a similar occurance each year about this time as our hosting service performs annual maintenance.. I understand that this year our data files are being moved to different computers.

The hint to open muliple tabs is a trick I found last year when this same thing was going on.
When I am online I actually have five tabs open that I use to administrate the forum.
I have 2 admin control panels open. One is for searching users to get the information on our daily new users and one is our banning options in case I find a spammer.
I then have 2 tabs for confirming spammers. One to stopforumspam.com and one to an IP search service.
Then of course I have ay least one open tab for reading posts and perhaps 2 so I can look at the rules or a second post. I do a lot of copy and past between all these tabs.

I know this is not the way most of our members use X Marks. Most are here just for fun and to enjoy the company of other kiltwearers but it does work.

I will be on the phone with our hosting company yet again today trying to find out some good news.
Please be patient. This is only temporary.
