I wasn't sure whether to post this in the idea submissions section or here. It's not actually a bug, as I see it technically it is correct, but it's a usability problem.

Having had in the past week(s?) to switch between 2 browsers - Firefox and Opera - I noticed this _annoying_ thing. Because the RTE isn't functional on Opera I write messages in Firefox and because my Firefox is slow I use Opera for anything else regarding the game.

So I basically start up with both browsers, having been logged in both of them. I attack and attack using Opera and then I get a new message. I switch to Firefox to go to my inbox and reply, but the session expires. So I have to log in again, type the message and send it and then I resume my attack session in Opera. But I'm already logged off from there as well. And I have to log in again. And so on.

I followed the behavior of free e-mail web based interfaces such as gmail. I login using Firefox, do whatever I want, login using Opera as well, send, delete messages etc., then switch back to Firefox and my session is still active. On both browsers. I'm obviously disconnected only when I log in from another _physical_ location (another IP).

Do you think, Cyberkilla, that something could be done about this?

I suppose it's a problem when you do a really weird thing like that

I did it to stop people being logged into remotely without their knowledge. I will see what I can do. It shouldn't be too hard to make it IP dependant too.

right click the message box, press frame then open a white screen shud come up, press back and u should now be able to type in the message box unfortunatly u hav to do this all the time 

Haha. Well yes... but for 'surfer junkies' it's not a weird thing at all. There was a time when I constantly needed to have 3 different browsers opened up at once, for completely different purposes, with lots of tabs in each (Konqueror on Linux, Firefox and Opera) - and I usually kept a gmail tab opened up in each of them.



Hmm... tu as raison. I don't know about the "IP dependent" part though - you should handle this better than me, 'coz I have always, always had a static IP. I wonder what happens when you don't...

You're IP doesn't change that often. Only every 48 hours for my isp. It will even let you keep the same IP until your router loses sync and starts up again.
So, you can keep it for a long time.

Admittedly, I have it disabled on my account so that I can test in IE7  while running in Firefox.

EDIT:
FYI, Opera 9.52 works for me.

Oh, OK, I see.




"Works"? When you switch to it after logging in another browser? Mine just "doesn't work!" (TM) here... I even upgraded to the latest version. Here's the version info it displays:
