Q: Announcement: upcoming login changes

As y'all know, our current flavor of "global authentication" leaves a few things to be desired. It's flaky, requires a page refresh, etc. etc. Wouldn't it be nice if you could just sign in once and be automatically logged in across the network? We are ready to roll out Stage 1 of Project "Make...

Good luck, because you probably can't log in to report them here. =)

@Undo It says they're checking where your ISP is registered and and using that to verify your location, but I doubt it.

hichris123

This sounds quite... helpful. :P

@AstroCB no, I think they are.

But a proxy is too much for them

While Smokey is borked, I'll be reporting manually I guess...

user259867

<a href="http://meta.stackexchange.com/users/login?returnurl=http%3a%2f%2fchat.meta.stackexchange.com%2fchats%2fjoin%2ffavorite">log in</a>

@Undo No, but meta's a bit jacked right now. We're rolling back and gonna try again tomorrow. — Anna Lear ♦ 2 mins ago
