    Can people please cut that ---- out where they post a link in their sig that logs you out?

    It's not clever, it's really annoying, and it's just gotta stop.

    thanks

    I have had this happen to me once. And I'm not naming whose it was that did it to me.

    All you have to do is take 2 seconds to log back in. Yes it can be annoying for a second but that time will pass.

    Why don't you just look to where the link takes you before clicking it by hovering over it. It will appear in the lower-left hand side of your browser. ;)

    If you see this:

    Code:

    Don't click it.

    I only got tricked once. Then I learned the code/link that it directs you to. Then you can easily tell. Try to pay more attention.

    That and its called playing a prank.

    That does seem like it would get on my nerves a bit. But it does sound like harmless fun lol.
