The other day I managed to log in without entering my password.
I typed in my username and accidently hit enter and it said, as usual, "thank you for logging in, IAMWILL". A few minutes later it logged me off when loading a new page. I have all the password rememberance stuff disabled on my computer.

So.... :what:

Not to derail the topic, but I can logout and still post. Strange, no?

I know what it is.
There are cookies still on your machine. If you use Firefox, right-click and choose "View Page Info" and go to the security tab.
Then click "View Cookies" and delete all of them from VT. Then refresh the page.

I use Internet Explorer and generally have cookies turned off, plus i had just cleared everything before.

Yes, I have all of the password rememberance stuff turned off.

i wouldnt get humpty at the glob mod they bite you know

but there is a thing called the cache which remembers things from a webpage you have visited recently and that u visit alot it can also remember stuff like passwords or the page where u have entered your password if u try disconneting ur internet or if your internet is playing u may find u can access google from cache :) so clear the cache and u shouldnt have a problem

Ohh, heey, be nice. Sarcastic cruelty can be smelled even when you put a smile face afterwards.:paperbag:

Sometimes, on computers where I have the Password remembering turned off, it will have the page saved from before I turned them off. It's possible, and it does happen.

Not to side track it further, but it's possible that the previous session has ceased to expire.?
What's the interval between both logins?
If you closed your browser and relaunched but not after rebooting your system. It's possible that the cookies are still persistent within the folder.
As iexplorer tends to ghost itself (multiple iexplore.exe processes persisting) even after your browser has closed.

Ya anyway to try and derail the derailment this is a summary of what happened.
Turn on computer.
Open ie.
Go to virtualteen.org
Type in IAMWILL
Accidently hit enter - I'm logged in
Move around the site, visit TWPR, click out, go to VT chronicle
Now I'm in as a guest
Log in again normally.

I always clear the history which includes cookies and any data entered into forms (as in our login) when I shut down my comp so I had nothing remembered when I logged on that day.

Unless you're deleting your temporary internet files, it's possible the pages you visited were just cached from sometime in the past.
If you are deleting your temp files, then it was most likely just a glitch.

It really shouldn't be anything to worry about though. As I highly doubt that while glitched you'd be able to do anything besides browse.

Also, if it happens again, check the top right of the forum, where it says when you last visited, if it's currently 3PM and it says you last visited "Today at 8PM" you know you're probably looking at a cached page, and not the real thing.

Okay.
The thing is I posted during the time before it made me log in again, and after the post I left the thread and went into some others. It was like 3 minutes after the post I had to log off.
