Basically, the moment I sign in, I am signed off. Or at least, so it appears at first; any and all urls I go to, including the url I redirect to on login, will take me back to regular http://www.byond.com/(whatever) , under which I apparently am not logged in. However, if I manually try to use https by typing in https://www.byond.com/(whatever), or type in the whole `https://secure.byond..`, byond recognizes that I am logged in again. Once I click basically anything, however, which will be linked as regular "http://www.byond.com/*", it does not recognize me yet again and asks me to login.
I think this actually started affecting me a year or two ago, but I didn't really login much so I figured I'd come back to it later. I am experiencing this both in Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04, on both Chrome and Firefox, and it has happened now with two different accounts. I'm not using Https-Anywhere or anything like that, all browsers mentioned are completely vanilla (although for the hell of it, I just tried Https-Everywhere anyways to see if it would at least keep me on https, since that's where things work, and it did not). I am currently posting this by editing the html of the 'add post' page locally to send this form through https://secure.byond.com/forum/. Anyways, thanks for any help you can offer!
UPDATE:
I have gotten Https-Everywhere to work, I am now able to stay logged on through that

Oh sure, I sent a friend request through the name Zdo10 on discord as you appear to have DMs disabled, although I am realizing now you might have literally meant speaking through that server itself, which is also fine.

Ping me on the server and I can send you a friend request from there. Might take us a while but I'd like to get to the bottom of this.

HTTPS Everywhere isn't actually a solution to your issue because it's incompatible with the site. Various things including forum posts typically won't work correctly.
