Would it be possible that when you sign in it redirects you to the page you were on. Idk if it's only me, but every time I log on while on the forums, it takes me to my profile.
I'm not sure what is does to I, since I usually log into my account while viewing my profile anyways. And also, this is not the biggest concern right now, it just takes you a few extra minutes. If they decide to change this, then good for you. But I just think this is not one of the major concerns right now. Then again, they may change it, since it likely wouldn't be too hard for them to change.
Every time I sign in, it's at the homepage, and every time I sign in, it takes me to the homepage, so yeah...I don't know if it's supposed to take you to the homepage or to the page you were on when you logged in...
