Yeah, this isn't a cookies thing.

It's fixed now.



Essentially, the problem with the stuff is that the cookies see zeldauniverse.net and http://www.zeldauniverse.net as different. Assuming it were enabled you could conceivably be logged in with separate usernames on zeldauniverse.net and http://www.zeldauniverse.net. However, our current settings on the boards make it so that ALL links and redirects of the forums tack on the www. to everything, ensuring that you never use zeldauniverse.net (though it IS exactly the same).

That's enabled because of the crazy amounts of URL rewriting the server does (this should be showthread.php?id=#### rather than something readable).

So, the problem was that when you log in from zeldauniverse.net without the www., the login script redirects to www.*, performs the login reaction, and then returns you to the previous location (zeldauniverse.net), which technically being on a different sub-domain, you are not logged in from (as far as cookies are concerned).


So, problem's fixed in that typing zeldauniverse.net/forums and whatever in the end will automatically add the www.
