If you lost access to this site over the past couple days

Question. When I use my iPad I am signed in on this site but on my iPhone I have to re sign in every time, and as soon as I leave the site even for a minute I have to sign in again. Is that a settings problem?
 
That one was my fault.

Speaking of problems, when I am posting on the various message boards, I can't use the toolbar in the post area when I am using the Google Chrome browser. The toolbar works for me when I use the Microsoft Edge browser.
 
I was using the chat during the women's game on Friday night, and my responses weren't posting, plus the chat wasn't updating. Even when I refreshed the page, it wouldn't always update. I think it happened to a few people. Someone suggested checking the "inverse message order" box in the settings tab, and that fixed the problem for me. That was the first time I had a problem with the chat since the format changed a year or so ago. (I use MS Edge for the Boneyard.)

On Saturday during the men's game, I noticed a few other people were also having problems seeing chat responses. I don't know if inverting the message order fixed it for them or not. Did something change in the chat settings last week?

You might be using private mode on your phone.

click on the "tabs" icon on mobile safari, and then look for the "Private" button. Click it.

If your/their safari skin is dark, you are in private mode, if it is light, you are not.

Let me know one way or the other if this works.

My guess is at some point on your phone you got a pop up saying do you accept cookies, or something like that and you chose no.

Try logging off on your phone clearing all the website data and then log back in and you should get a pop-up saying will you accept cookies? Also, don't forget to check off that little box saying you want to stay logged in.

Access has been good for me but for some reason I and others haven't been able to reply to posts in chat rooms. Might it be a setting that we can change? Thanks for all you do!!

Show me a screen capture I'm not sure what you mean. It is a little difficult to quote a post in the chat because the screen is always moving up or down every five seconds.

Can you click to the right and then the quote symbol?

That quote symbol doesn't work for me when I use the Google Chrome browser. It works for me if I use the Microsoft Edge browser.

That was it! Thanks a lot! . I don’t know the first thing about tech and you do!

Same question is asked once every three or four weeks. I never knew the answer, so I asked a kid for help.

A year or two ago I came to the board and couldn't see any posts. I went to the womens and football boards and those were fine. I could only see the mens bb board if I was logged out.
I figured I must have posted some really dumb stuff while buzzed after a game one night and gotten banned. Turned out I mistakenly checked a box or something that blocked the entire board. I forget what it was. I found the error and undid it and everything came back. Lol I'm an idiot.
