Board issues or just me?

I noticed that we don't have the view new topics link at the top and that is ok with me. So I'm assuming that some board work was recently done.
My worries are these: When I log in with my android or ipod it always has me logged out and I have to sign in. When I sign in with the ipod and click "auto log me in" It comes back with an invalid credentials message. Also when I click on a link from the view active topics it automatically takes me to the bottom of the page and acts like I'm about to do a reply. So I have to scroll back up to the top. This happens on all the PCs I check on not just the android and ipod.
Anyone else with these problems? my OSs range from xp-win7. If that helps.
Chris.

Chris - This was my doing. Even though it stated "View New Topics", it was really showing "Active topics". This allowed us to show both the "new" and "active" topics together. What it did was increase participation on topics that people may have missed or wanted to comment on later.

Don't have either type of phone. Hopefully someone else can help with this.

My guess is that you're using Internet Explorer. There is an option somewhere that takes your cursor to the first available "text box". I will try to find that option...

Chris,
If you use Firefox that cursor at the bottom of the page will go away (so will a lot of other idiotic stuff LoL)

I tried Ff once and didn't like it. It was a long time ago and I was young so it probably was just me not wanting to try something new. I might run through it again. Maybe try Google Chrome while I'm at it.

I dislike FireFox too. Too outdated for my taste. Chrome is where it's at - fast and beautiful!
If you use Chrome, get the "Speed Dial" extension. I personally can't live without it.

Maybe "outdated" as you put it but it does not have a load of geegaw crap hung all over it , depends on your life style if you are a "tweet" well Chrome is where its at LoL

Chrome is as clean as you get - the minimalist style is why I like it. Not sure what version you're looking at. No Tweeter here...
