There is a known issue that I have not yet been able to fix. I need to gather more information on the issue to fix it.
A user logs into Vampire Rave. At some point, the user is randomly logged out. It turns out it is not random (it never is). The log out is triggered when a user visits a page with HTML code pointing to an image file that does not exist.
I have added a lot of code to Vampire Rave to fix bad HTML code entered by our users. This catches the vast majority of these logouts so they do not occur. However, if it is a Vampire Rave system page (with a bad image file) that is causing a log out, please report it in this bug chain so I can fix it.
I'm also still working on a solution so that bad image files in our pages do not force a user logout.
What can make the issue hard to identify, is that you will not be logged out when viewing the bad page. The logout is visible on the next page you view. Also, sometimes you don't realize you were logged out until you navigate through a few more pages.

This is exactly what ends up happening every time I visit the honor page.

I've verified this happens for me as well when visiting this page. Rather than fix the page (like I have been doing), I will see if I can fix the root source.

I think I have trapped and isolated the source of this error. It happens not just when there is broken html image code, it requires several broken html images on the same page.
I've made some updates. I think I have fixed the root of this issue. The honor page stopped doing logouts after the fix. I next corrected the honor page so there were no broken html image links.
I'm going to leave this report open, because the issue may still persist. Please report any forced logouts here.

I'm pretty sure this issue has been fixed, so I am closing this report.
