Can only use this site at work these days
At home, I get about 10 minutes' access, but only if I
(a) re-start computer
(b) delete all browsing history, and
(c) use the https address set out on p1 of this thread.
Even then, I am given access for about 15 minutes, before I get signed out to face the tyranny of the red 'invalid' notice.
Love this place, as my posting history suggests, but I can't go through that rigmarole every time I want to post some gibber-jabber...

Re: 'Invalid' notice/privacy note/login issues [Updated 11/1]
I was back up and running yesterday but today locked out again...
Couldn't log in via my iPhone (4G)
Was logged in on the laptop (Chrome from my home IP) but couldn't post and couldn't log out.
Used Windows Edge (home IP) to request a password reset.
Reset my password.
Logged straight in via iPhone (4G)
Logged straight in via laptop (Chrome home IP)
Able to post this... I hope...
edit... it obviously worked - may have been something in the password reset, may have just been luck - worth reporting back either way (hope that hasn't created a flow of password reset requests!)

Finally logged in after 30 minutes.
Cleared all cache/history before even attempting to log in and got the invalid message.
Cleared cache/history again and still got the invalid message
Closed down/reopened browsers, cleared cache/history - still invalid message
Attempted to just keep trying to log in and after a lot of attempts it just logged me in randomly.

Re: 'Invalid' notice/privacy note/login issues [Updated 11/1]
Haven't been able to log in for a couple of days via chrome on PC laptop or safari on my iphone
Today I cleared the cache and removed KUMB cookies on my laptop and restarted the browser, and I can now login on my laptop AND my iphone although I hadn't actually made any changes to the latter
Just clearing the cache and restarting didn't do anything, it was removing cookies too that made the difference

Re: 'Invalid' notice/privacy note/login issues [Updated 11/1]
Hasn't been working on my Android phone for last couple of days despite constantly clearing cookies etc
One interesting fact is that before I clear cookies it tells me there are 184 of them from Kumb, I then clear them and check again and there are still the same number.
Today I logged straight in via my PC on Windows 10 via Microsoft Edge, didn't need to clear cookies or anything.
Went back to my phone and could immediately sign in there as well, without deleting anything

Thanks for the reports, folks. Glad to hear it's sorted for many of you but we're still looking at providing a full solution, as there is still an issue there. More updates and and when I have them.

Been trying to get on all morning via work computer, with no luck, cleared, deleted, erased, refreshed, knob wiped and restarted the computer, still not having any of it.
Try on my phone and it logs me in first time (Android)
Edit: 232nd attempt and I'm in on desktop (Firefox)

In first time on PC this morning. What I have noticed if I get in one device I cannot get in on a second.
Last night it was phone only (during the game) and this morning just PC, phone won't have it.

I got invalid message when trying to post at half time last night and since then I've not been able to log in. Just tried once more and I am able to log in - didn't do anything different from 10 minutes ago when it wouldn't let me in.

Got logged out a few days ago and today is the first time I could log in.
Re: 'Invalid' notice/privacy note/login issues [Updated 11/1]
Yeah I was going to say I spoke too soon. Had 2 days of it being absolutely fine across devices, but did still was getting logged out frequently. Then this morning I couldn't login for hours on my laptop, same issue as before. Checked my mobile, I was miraculously still logged in but now couldn't post!! Same error.Up the Junction wrote: ↑Wed Jan 12, 2022 2:36 pm Thanks for the reports, folks.

Not been able to log in since midday. I got fed up with it just now that I just kept repeatedly clicking the mouse over the login button and after about 10 clicks in very quick succession - I'm in.
