FH Keeps Logging Me Out

[Amuse.Me]

Chrome and Firefox both keep logging me out, i have no idea whats going on.

If you mean constantly [and not right off the bat every few seconds] then that can be normal.
Sometimes the log in page can have good days and bad days for one person and completely opposite for another person.
At least, from what I've seen.

There been a day where I just couldn't stay on for more than 30 minutes and then after that day I could very good days with the page.
I guess it can just depend.

I've tried a few more times and it still will not work, I tried using different browsers, restarted my router and tried using a refreshing page. I just log into the login page and then hurry and log into the actual game, it won't connect the first 2 times but then the third it will say it is, but when i look at the login page it says i have to log in again still. Ugh. Hopefully it will go back to normal tomorrow. If not then I'm not sure what I will do. It's just weird because it was working fine yesterday and now it's not. And it sucks because I just joined an RP and now I can't get on.. But If anyone else has any more tips please let me know! Thank you!

Make sure you have cookies enabled. Also, the second possibility is you may be banned right now.
For further information, send a personal message to a staff member (Staff Page).

I'm pretty sure I have cookies enabled, but how would I make sure? And I don't think I would be banned. But is there a certain member to contact?

"How do I Enable Cookies and Disable Cookies?

This section will tell you how to enable cookies (turning cookies on) and also how to disable them. Since cookies are maintained by your web browser, the method for enabling or disabling them will vary depending on which browser you are using.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 - 11.0
Select the 'Tools->Internet Options' menu item, and then open the 'Privacy' tab - you can then adjust the slider to block or allow various categories of cookie. Alternatively by clicking 'Advanced...' you can exercise finer control over the browser's behavior, choosing whether to accept, block, or prompt for cookies originating either on the website you are visiting (first party cookies) or originating from websites other than the one you are visiting (third party cookies, typically used by banner advertisements hosted on an advertiser's website).

Firefox 7.0 and newer
Use the 'Tools->Options' menu item (may be under the Firefox button or 'parallel lines' menu button), then choose the 'Privacy' tab. Set the 'Firefox will:' option to 'Use custom settings for history'. Now you can choose whether cookies are enabled for websites you visit and third party websites, and if so how long they will persist. You can also use the 'Exceptions' button to override the settings for particular websites.

Firefox 3.0
Use the 'Tools->Options' menu item, then choose the 'Privacy' tab. Here you can choose whether cookies are enabled, and if so how long they will persist. You can also use the 'Exceptions' button to override the settings for particular websites.

In the 'Privacy' section, click on the 'Content settings...' button and open the 'Cookies tab. Set the required cookie behaviour and use the 'Exceptions...' button (if required) to configure specific websites.

Ok I will look at that now, thank you. Oh and I tried to email a member and after i hit send a page came up saying that I'm blocked? Does that mean I'm banned? Not really sure why I would be. If i am tho, how log does it take to become un-banned?

Well now I emailed the other user and it let me send it. So I'll just see if they email me back.

Just gonna ask you...

I see you already tried http://refreshthis.com/, and that it didn't work. But when you tried it, did you paste the url from AFTER you logged into the tab, and set it to refresh every 25 seconds? I suppose that should have been mentioned previously as not everyone knows the best settings. If you didn't do this before, give it a shot again and see what happens.

If you have tried those specific settings, then it could be, although probably less likely, that your game is lagging at the login screen and missing the interval. Try a tutorial made by Red HERE and see if you're able to make it work. If you need help with the process, I can try breaking down the steps for you as I've already done it and my game runs smoother than it used to.

Also, if you have access to your router's login, do so and go to the login page by typing the router's IP address into the search bar of your browser and it should take you straight there. Normally a router will have a username and password for the login so use those if yours does. Once you're in, start looking for something called MTU, usually found under Bandwidth settings. Once you've found the MTU, change it to 1500 if it's not already set to that. By doing this, you will allow the router to process more bandwidth and increase the speed of your Internet, essentially. If successful, it might help your game to connect faster.

And finally, a clean reinstall is always an option. I know it isn't the greatest one, but should it come down to that then let it be so. Just make sure you back up any files you may want to keep, such as maps, presets, objects and items, etc. Uninstall and delete your FH folder (even from your recycle bin afterward), and reinstall your game.

Good luck.
