Weird Login Issue for Forum

Here in this forum, just recently this started; whenever I go to The Bridge section it automatically signs me out. Signing back in repeatedly seems to do no good. I’m still perfectly signed in to other sections and even some of the subsection within The Bridge but the main area of The Bridge keeps unlogging me. It’s very irritating.

Anyhow, thought you guys should know about it and maybe try and fix whatever is going one here. Thanks in advance!
Weirdly enough, I’m also Vulcan Housewife. Also, RNGesus hates me, like really, REALLY hates me.

    Not sure if this is related, but the old forums page won’t stop trying to reload & the wiki is temporarily down. Maybe it’s all due to inclement weather? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Not able to replicate the Bridge issue that Zann is experiencing, but the old forum definitely is in a constant reload/refresh loop. Thankfully I don't visit there more than once in a blue moon (when I need to search through old posts for something), but it is a little odd, and does prevent accessing anything there. But yes — sad panda — wiki is still down. :'(


    Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

    The old forums now redirects to a page with this message:

    “Client id is the wrong format.”

    Same message appears in Safari (iOS) and Chrome (Windows 10), so I am unsure what “client id” means there.

    So, that's unfortunate. It was going through an infinite refresh loop last time I visited.

    However, thanks to Google, you can still browse the old forums via their cache of it:

    http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:https://forums.disruptorbeam.com/stt/viewforum/36/

    I tested a few threads and they were there, but I suppose it's possible that not every single thread/sub-forum will be accessible. In any case, at least it's something.

    EDIT: Nevermind, the main forum itself does appear to be directly accessible now:

    So, that second link took me to the “Client id ...” message again. I came back to these “new forums”, signed out and went back to the old & Bob’s your uncle, I can read the archived posts. Weirdness. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
