I think they you should automatically Log out after a certain amount of time. 😊 It can maybe be a option in preferences

Nah, It would be a hassle for me to always reenter my password on my private computer account. 😋

Maybe if it was an option on your preferences though. 😊

I think it's good because If you log onto a school computer, and you don't log out, and you can't go on the computer again, then your account can be hacked

This could be improved.

We could have a "Stay logged in" option next to the login page. We check it when we want to stay logged in.

But I think alot of us use private computers or are responsible to log out on school computers. It's too much a hassle for me to re-enter everytime.

But if it makes life simpler for some, then it can be an option you can turn on and off on your preferences. C;

@trish Possibly 😊 I think it can benefit some users, though. 😉

It's a decent idea, but maybe if there was an option in the users preferences only, saying something like "log-of automatically when browser is closed", so it will not hassle anyone and will only work for those who use that option in their preferences.

@linpug
Thanks, though it was yours originally, I just thought of a way to improve it. 😊

I don't think this is a good idea because you wouldn't want to be playing and then just randomly log out..

I would really hate to be automatically logged out. I'm the only one who uses my computer and to be forced to continually log into EggCave would be a pain in the arse. For some websites its acceptable and makes sense, like bank websites, paypal, and other mostly financial things. But to get kicked off an adoptables website after a certain amount of time doesn't fit.

@cotton I said it could be a option in preferences, so if you don't want to log out, you can choose that option, or something. ^^

@linpug Oh ok. Or it could be auto log out when you exit, because it doesn't automatically log out.
Sometimes I close my browser window and I have to get back on to log out. D:
