whereas the a.cc cookies drop like flies

Really? I'm pretty sure the std a.cc cookies are set for a year. Occasionally I do have to re log in, but its usually caused by logging in from a network outside of my "remember me" settings.

What would be really nice is if I could put TWO ranges of ips to remember me from. One for my cell phone, and another for my home connection. :D

Yes, but the whole point was there is no remember me option, so that is why I have to relogin. But I see that it had already been addressed, I just didn't read well enough.

Yeah google does this. I can be logged in from like 5 devices and I often am.

You click on the bottom right here.
{"name":"600439","src":"http:\/\/static.allegro.cc\/image\/cache\/1\/4\/142bf6f5a09882a86fb499e11747c616.png","w":391,"h":110,"tn":"http:\/\/static.allegro.cc\/image\/cache\/1\/4\/142bf6f5a09882a86fb499e11747c616"}600439

Then you get this awesome dialog.
{"name":"600440","src":"http:\/\/static.allegro.cc\/image\/cache\/e\/7\/e7fa33da8294399c32edd0fc487c2949.png","w":651,"h":530,"tn":"http:\/\/static.allegro.cc\/image\/cache\/e\/7\/e7fa33da8294399c32edd0fc487c2949"}600440

It can be really awesome when you forget to logout on someone else's computer. One time a girl decided she hated me and was going to charge up my iTunes account, which I left logged in on her computer :o. I quickly disabled my credit card on iTunes. Something similar could happen to gmail one day :-X.

Also, using quick reply, the "Attach files" isn't clickable in Chrome 5.0.317.2. It is clickable on reply page, but only on the 4 pixels on the bottom edge.

If you're referring to the original Allegro.cc login (not the OpenID implementation) then IIRC (from like 3 years ago when I first joined and would get logged out regularly) the IP range you set is only used to restrict where the cookie is allowed to be used. So I don't see how it's useful to add a range for both your cell phone and your home connection. Unless you want your cell phone to still be logged in when you're going through your home network? In any case, you can always just set the IP range to 0 (as long as nobody else gets access to your cookies the IP range basically has no positive affect). To ensure that I stay logged in regardless of dynamic IP changes, I just set the range to 0 (0.0.0.0 - 255.255.255.255). If anyone else is getting access to cookies on my system then I think my Allegro.cc account is the least of worries. :P

Right. I don't want to be that insecure. Id just like my phone not to log my laptop/desktop out, or the laptop/desktop cause the phone to log out.

It does that? I sign in from work and home, and neither sign the other account out. Only time I get signed out now a days is when Firefox updates (or some extension that edits the useragent string)

You can have multiple cookies per multiple browsers per account. Logging in never logs you out.

Logging out invalidates all auto-login cookies on that given browser.

Logging in never logs you out.

See I could swear loging in and selecting "remember me" invalidates any other cookies associated with the account.

I too log in from both home and j0rb and never[1] get logged out in either.
