Sorry for kinda "hijacking" this thread, but there is another bug in the forum software that wasn't there before.
Visit any thread and use the "hop to" function (to any section) and you'll be not logged in anymore.
If you go to the forums again, you're logged in again.
Anyone else having this problem?

I'm using latest FireFox

edit:
I confirm the initial bug of this thread, I got this too using FireFox, so its not a Chrome only problem.
