Why does the forum force me to login before i can view anything? – it redirects me to the login page every time i visit.

Alternatively i just use my browser’s incognito mode to avoid the annoying redirection.

Beyond the fact that you need to have an actual valid game account to view the forums (by design) this is an issue with your browser’s security settings. I use Chrome and tell it to remember my log in (but still have to log in occasionally….but not every time).

I dont think you need to have a valid game account to view the forums since i can view it fine on other networks with a mobile device. Also, i never keep passwords on my browser. Maybe by design it is just an inconvenience for people with a valid account.

So apparently this is an actual design by anet and not really a browser setting.
I’m going to keep using incognito mode to browse with out logging in 90% of the time.
