Subject: I thought I was losing my mind

So, I was logged into BT and went to another tab to look up something.  I came back and tried to browse to COJ in the forums...BUT IT WAS GONE!  POOF!  DISAPPEARED!

My first thought was, wow...did things get so out of control that they had to pull the whole FORUM?

I refreshed my page three times...still no COJ.

I must be losing my mind!

Then I noticed that for some reason BT had logged me out when I switched to a different tab.  Log in, COJ returns...

Whew...

Please tell me this has happened to other people? :-)

Hahaha...That happened to me once, so you are not alone.

I was under the impression that i had logged in and was looking for COJ and couldn't find it.  I started to think what could someone had said that the removed the entire forum instead of the thread Smile

Yup.  I thought I was in a strange, alternate universe.  Then I logged on, and all was well.

It's happened to me also, so that makes at least 4 of us. And I thought something similar, that the whole CoJ forum group was gone.

I would post it on the site problem forum -

http://www.beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/forums/forum-view.asp?fid=9#s

Also, identify your operating system (Windows XP SP3, Windows 7, Mac Snow Leopard version ??, etc. etc.), browser and browser version.

It's not a problem...I think it's just that you have to be signed in to see COJ.  Maybe they want people who aren't members to get sucked in by a serious tri website and then BOOM!  They're sucked in and find out what COJ is.

The logging out, though...that's usually an easy fix of clearing cookies.  It happens to me on occasion.

It just never occurred to me that they would block COJ to logged in members only...weird.

Not weird at all. Just don't want to scare off the newbies before we hook 'em. If they saw CoJ first most would never log in, but rather run screaming into the interwebs night.

Heck, that still happens to me sometimes when I look at CoJ.

The first time that happened to me I thought I got kicked out of CoJ but had no idea why.

Daily occurrence here. Just the thought of TAN gives me the heebie jeebies.

Cool
