My browser remembers also... and so does everyone else's, until the login cookie, which isn't refreshed upon each site visit, expires after 30 days.You misunderstood.? I have my user/email and password saved by the browser.? When I arrive at the login screen, I only need to click the Log In button since the information is automatically inserted.? I was incorrect on the number of clicks though.? To access the site, I have a bookmark set to take me to the overview page, , so when I've been logged out, I need to click the Log In choice at the top, then the Log In button, so 2 clicks.? This is only on my home computer where no one else normally has access.? On my laptop that I carry when traveling, I have to manually enter the information. Not only have I asked for a change, but I've also asked for the reason for only 30 days before expiration and why the cookie isn't simply renewed during each new visit... and unless I missed something I haven't received a response to either question other than that Mark decided otherwise "years ago." That's not a reason, that's a result. Does anyone know the real reason?I just read all 61 of your posts on the beta group and you haven't asked for a change, nor a reason.? As all of us here are only users, we can only guess as to the reasons behind a decision Mark has made.? Only Mark knows the real reason. Could that failure to see the discomfort be because, as is frequently stated, there's no official Gio presence on GMF we wouldn't see those complaint threads several times weekly... week after week after week after week.As has also been mentioned frequently on this group, the beta group is the only suggestion box for the site.? If you don't post there, it won't be considered.? You also have the option of contacting support, but may not get a reply quickly.? I think my personal record is getting a reply 7 months after my request.
