I have had the same problem previously, this happens if you are logged in one multiple computers at the same time. it is an unfortunate bug, but the only way to fix it is to log off on the other computers.
Looking forward to anatomy, protein, fossils, and optics (NYS trial) this year!

It works somewhat better if you click "log me on automatically at each visit" but it still logs out once in a while.

scioly automatically logs you out every 10-15 minutes, but using "log me on automatically each visit" should fix most problems with that.

I'll try that, thanks. whats the deal with being logged onto multiple computers? as far as I know, im only logged into one at a time, but whenever I use the computers at my school, the moment I click ANYTHING I get logged out. cant post at all dring work sesions

That might be because of your school proxies and permissions.

that's what I have been assuming, and our IT department isnt always the best (the server crashes twice a week at least.) Ill put it this way: You can access any banned site a school through a secure connection, so just add an s to http :D

that is also extremely likely, as my school computers no doubt have disabled cookies.

Oh while I'm at it, to avoid wasting people's time with a new thread:

I was trying to shorten my signature, so I removed my placings section and lumped them with my event list, but now it says it "cant find the dimensions of the image im using." It has never said this before, and I didnt change anything regarding pictures... (its the gif that's doing it)
