Logging In to DP - What's Going On?

    For years, every time I visited DP, they automatically know who I am (Welcome, Surf_Dude.).
    Not any more. For weeks now, they NEVER recognize me, until I physically log in. By the next day, I am a stranger again.

    Does anyone else have this problem?
    Am I missing something?
    Don't the cookies work anymore?

    Wondering. Thanks.

    Years before you mistakenly clicked on 'Remember Me' so you used to be automatically recognised but from last few weeks you haven't done this. That is why you are facing such a terrible problem! :(

    I went ahead and clicked the "Remember Me" button. I guess this should fix it.

    It seems weird though, that I haven't had to do this for years.
    Maybe every few years, DP "resets" the Remember Me" button to "Forget".

    Most likely the cookies in your browser got wiped out.
