Ok this problem is hard to explain but hear me out.
If you open up the funkypool game browser and leave it for like 30 minutes you are logged out. But when it asks you to log back in because your time is expired, it signs you in and shows you the funkypool.com page, but notice the scroll bar is now not available. just check it out for yourself.

Thats not a problem, the scrollbars were removed as part of the most recent update to make more space for the tables.

You're not reading it carefully enough. When you log in from the Funkypool GAME BROWSER after you expire, it takes you to the FUNKYPOOL.COM PAGE, notice when you are reading this there is a scroll bar. This scroll bar is not available if you say went into the forums.

so if you get logged out in the game window and log in again it takes you to the homepage but in the game window and you have no scroll bar?

Yes, thats perfectly normal, because you are logging in in the game window where the scrollbars are disabled.

I know but it is a problem am i right? Surely when you log in it could instead open a new browser with a scroll bar and at the same time sign you in on the game window.

But i have no knowledge of this stuff so i do not know if it is possible. Just highlighting ideas =p

Yes, its a valid point. Idealy it would open a new, "normal" window with the website and leave the game window for you to log in to.

I'm sure it will be dealt with in due course.

It's been like that as long as I've been on this site, and yes it is (IMO) a bug that the game window is reused for logging into the web site after a timeout.

The perfect solution would clearly be for the game to log you back in to your game session.

A second best option would be for a timed out game window to simply state the timeout and ask you to close the window. That way you would need to log back in on the web site and open a new game window - a much cleaner and more sensible solution than the current one.

In my experience, what happens is it logs you into the SITE, not the game, showing the web site in the game window.

Oops, that's a bug I never knew about... how long has that been like that for!

Yes, indeed it should (and used to) take you to the game after log in.
