but it hasnt

I swear, the ONLY website of ALL time that respects this is forums.somethingawful.com and I think this is because the ceo of something awful has no sympathy for people loving around ont he internet


but to the point..

I think maybe wesbites just dont have the same integrity as they used to. keep me logged in just doesn't mean what it used to

serious question but why do some websites keep me logged in literally forever (i have a laptop i have been using since 2009 that has never once asked me to log into SA or reddit in the 7 years i had it) but some forums like KLOV (arcade-museum) literally asks me every loving day? i have it set to "remember me" so i don't get it.

some sites don't set expires or max-age when creating cookies so they last forever

e: also they prolly don't enforce a max session age server-side i guess

it also seems like the sites that always log you out also never auto-store your password, so when it asks you your password you have to type it in. again this is on a goddamn arcade message board, not an online bank

the password storing is done client-side by ye browser. however i think there are certain ways to make it not do that thing...

no i definitely tell my browser every goddamn time to store the password, the site just ignores it for some reason
