Tell PG: Logout is broken

by arohner on 9/17/2011, 5:53 PM with 11 comments

On OSX Chrome and Firefox, the logout button doesn't work, both on the home page, and the YC application page (http://news.ycombinator.com/apply)

    Logout is NOT broken in OS X Lion either in Chrome (14.0.835.163) or Firefox (6.0), on my machine at least.

    However, logout can be extremely slow, and it seems to get slower if you bang on login/logout a lot; HN might have coded in some delays to keep users from slowing the server down.

    My guess is, this user just didn't wait long enough for logout to work.

    Hmm. Works for me in Win 7 Chrome. I'd be curious if the issue is related to the login method. I use clickpass with Google.
