	WOWchinese Website Specifics Why do I get logged out sometimes automatically? When you log in, a session starts. If there is no activity with the server for 20 mins, you get log off from the server. This is for security reasons. This doesnot happen in the case of WOWchinese.

We do not currently have a way for users to delete their own accounts, but you can follow these steps to create the same effect.     * Delete any entries that you have on your account.     * Edit your profile to remove any personal information stored there.

WOWchinese Login Enquiries What does the Save Password checkbox do? If checked, the "Save Password" checkbox on WOWchinese's home page will automatically log your account into WOWchinese when you return in the future. This is a good idea if you're the only person using the computer. It is a bad idea if it is a publicly accessible computer, or if you're sharing the computer with other folks. Notes: * Occasionally WOWchinese might seem to forget that you've checked the "Save Password" checkbox- this is because the cookie that remembers your account information is set to expire after 8 weeks. If this happens to you, log in again with your WOWchinese username and password (and check the box if you wish). Why doesn't it log me out You need to click on the 'Logout' button or close the browser to logout. You won't be logged out if you close only one of many open windows or you surf to another website. But if you have 'Save Your Password', then your login information is stored in your computer for automatically future login. WOWchinese Questions about different sections of this site What is a blog? A blog is a web page made up of usually short, frequently updated posts that are arranged chronologically ¡X like a what's new page or a journal. The content and purposes of blogs varies greatly ¡X from links and commentary about other web sites, to news about a company/person/idea, to diaries, photos, poetry, mini-essays, project updates, even fiction. Blog posts are like instant messages to the web. Many blogs are personal, "what's on my mind" type musings. Others are collaborative efforts based on a specific topic or area of mutual interest. Some blogs are for play. Some are for work. Some are both. Blogs are also excellent team/department/company/family communication tools. They help small groups communicate in a way that is simpler and easier to follow than email or discussion forums. Use a private blog on an intranet to allow team members to post related links, files, quotes, or commentary. Set up a family blog where relatives can share personal news. A blog can help keep everyone in the loop, promote cohesiveness and group culture, and provide an informal "voice" of a project or department to outsiders.
