If you have nothing helpful to say maybe you start another post on how you hate the iPhone. I got one to pass the time at work. When you sit in a truck all day long alone on stand by for emergencies it can get boring. Its nice to be able to browse the web, check emails, pay bills and talk to people. It has a helpful map features to get me around when I have to work in unknown territory. So maybe its useless and junk to some people but my iPhone is put to good use. I agree that some people have terrible cell phone manners though. To Doctor Fugue who had a helpful comment I will try to look at my settings thank you.

Maybe you didn't finish reading my post... don't get so upset that some people don't like your garbage. I have a pile of garbage at my house you probably wouldn't even consider wiping your rectum with.


to recap:
@OP - do you have your cookies turned on? The forum runs on php which authenticates you and creates a temporary cookie (unless you have "remember me" selected, in that case it creates a psuedo permanent cookie), then when you go to post it checks for that cookie and authenticates again. If no cookie is found it asks you to log in and authenticate which generates another cookie. If you don't allow cookies, then it can't ever authenticate you accept for the initial "log in". If the forum logs you in and then authenticates via the cookie yet again before bringing you to the post page (which it most likely does), then you are caught in a vicious circle.

Sorry, I just finished reading it and I think you nailed my problem thank you. And I'm not upset, I just hate when people post with nothing helpful to say. I will go else where with my iPhone questions from now on.
