Not for me!

Previously, unread posts were marked red, reads are black.

If I now read red marked posts and then go back to read a new thread, I am logged out.
After logging in again, the already read thread is marked red again.

So one comes confused what read Threads concerns.

What annoys me mostly as for latest few days, if not checking "remember me" at logging in, when I have written my text and submit, I' am always logged out and asked for new log in, doing so, the already written text is gone and I have to start typing all over again.

Only workaround for me so far: checking "remember me" and yet also copying the text before "submit" or "preview", then at least the text is to be recovered easily by pasting after newly demand to log in

Same here but I think they (chessusa.com) are working on a solution that resolves the problem of blocked members.

There are issues from the UK as well, but intermittently. When I strike that, I connect to a U.S. VPN and then it is fine. Crazy.

It's a pattern, it looks like the US is free from attacks and the target is Europe.
