I had to login this morning. All of the forums' data (thread & post numbers) said "Private." Maybe it's a security update? Maybe those evil hackers over at The Omega Forums are trying to find out our plans during "SSgate 2019."

If your password is saved you should be ok.

Not only with me buddy. Others are experiencing the same. Probably what Jocke said. I browse the forum without logging many times when I'm on my phone. Even in business meetings lol. I like that way.

Hmmmm, really strange ... it’s working for me as always without having to login.

Maybe it’s something you (and others) have said

Yep, I have to log in. It’s a good way to get membership numbers up. Lots of other things come along with that.

I always log out. You have to log in to see the forum now, everything is locked. A casual browser can no longer drop in and read a few threads. You must be registered and log in.

I stay logged in on my laptop, but did just logout and no content was available. Have to login, as others have experienced and commented. But there are still about a 1000 guests on the forum at the moment--how are they gaining access to content? May be some kind of bug.

I don't think that would work here Chad. People need to see what's going on before joining.

I suppose the guests could be getting notification that all content is private. Just occurred to me they may not be able to access threads, but are getting the same view we are prior to logging in. In which case, this is how TRF works moving forward. Not an inconvenience in my case, as I click the "remember me" box on first log in.

I can only see the main page if not logged in. People take a long time before joining and sometimes years before posting for the first time. I don't think that main page is attractive enough to encourage people to become members.
