Did you check the little “keep me logged in” box before entering your password?

Similar deal here, no posting on bulletin boards or emails through my phone.

Typ from an older IPad, may be getting close to time to replace it

I've been using my phone to post here for years. I'm not experiencing any of the problems everyone is talking about.

I had the same log in problems as most everyone for a few days at most, seems to have been handled and is working normally now.

I do everything from my iPhone 10, I don’t use any other devices.

The slow to post and double posting issues are still with us unfortunately but oh well…..

No sign-in trouble now, but that might be on account
of previous sign-in trouble. Last time PY was overrun, I
had to switch to Responsive 2017. You can find it down
at the bottom of the page.

I have to modify my statement of having no trouble, I have noticed the slow posts.

Finally got back in. Had to go to my Chromebook to make the capture picture thing work so I could reset my password once again. Was able to do it yesterday but it didn’t recognize me today……hope I can stay logged on!



Note: still super slow posting

I haven't had any problems with keeping logged in since my post on it. (last week?)
It does seem slow when replying to posts though. This is with a laptop and Firefox.

I think I fixed my problem. Instead of going to my favorites and clicking PY, I typed in my search bar PYonlineforums and didn't have to sign in , it was already there and stayed signed in for three days. So I put this one on my favorites and deleted my old one.

I log in and out (on my laptop only) everytime.

I do notice the slow posting time.

However, I also notice that I am receiving many more spam emails than previously, so I wonder if there may be much more "bad actor" activity over all.

Unlike any other web site I visit and even a guitar amp site that I am a admin on, this site has a big flaw in that it allows you to make a duplicate post.

Why is that option even needed?

If that issue is resolved then at least 50% of the issues I experience all the time are gone.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
