I think there should be an auto sign out when you exit the site it signs you out. Because we I did a game review I was on my sisters account because she didnt log out and I thought she logged out. And then when I clicked submit I saw that it was Brooke_1997 and dammit!... This is so frustrating. I hope this is a helpful suggestion.

I think it could be a useful option. I wouldn't use it (I'm not that paranoid yet that I think others in my house would want to go on AG while I'm not around). I don;t see anything wrong with it though wouldn;t it be easier to check who's logged on in future?

Well firstly, swearing is highly frowned upon, please refrain from using it the best that you can.

Secondly people are capable of logging themselves out, and if you live in a house with other members of AG, wouldn't it just be easier for you to check the name of the account you are on instead of making the AG headquarters one programmer come up with a way to auto log out members when the exit out of the site? I just think the best thing to do would be to check the account you're on carefully, it's win a win/win situation for everyone. ^^

I'm already frustrated by the auto-signout that happens every two weeks or so for no reason (once it happened while I was typing a post)...

It would probably be a good implementation, but should be a toggle option.

As for that review, post it from your own account and give a mod a link to the game saying they should delete the first one because of this...
Cholokid is right, though.

I would not like auto sign out. it takes more time to log in than log out, but i get what your saying. Maybe, you should get your own computer or actually look if you OR your sis is signed on.

I want it removed completely. It's getting f'ing annoying when I get logged out EVERY FEW MINUTES.

Chill....it happens to me every single time. Used to occur whenever I was typing out a post or comment. AS a result, now I always copy a post before posting it, for fear of an auto sign-out ruining my day.

--------------------------------

On a side note, just get your sister to log off when you get on, ensuring that you always log on when you start AG. Don't assume that at a glance, the first account you see is your own.

Or start an alternate account on your computer, one for you and one for your sister/family members.

It's really not that hard just follow my easy steps

1-When you finish on the site go up and click on the "Logout" buttan.
2-Follow number 1
3-Follow number 2


nNot that hard cos if you don't log out people will think that you are still loged on.

I thing it bad idea. You just need to check the username. Sometimes it just logout and it happend when i post. I hate it.

Ha, a while while (long while) back i suggested that everytime you close the page it signs you out, instead of staying signed in due to if someone at home gets on your account and gets you banned.

You just have to remember it yourself:P
It would be extremely annoying for someone like me, who lives alone, and who check the forums regularly.
Well, it could be an option, but putting it in as something that actually happens every time you close the computer, that would incredibly annoying - -

I think that AG users should be able to chose weather they get logged out automaticaly or not. That way, its another win/win situation.

Kind of hard to understand what you just wrote, but I think that I got it. If there was an option to turn it on/off then it wouldn't be any trouble. Either way, you are still going to have to sign on every time you switch user, so there is nothing anyone can really do about that.
