This just started today, but I'm not always being forwarded to the fast server when I'm coming to the site. Both times it happened (now, and about an hour ago), I've been able to manually access the fast server, but I've got the "auto-redirect" option enabled in my profile and it's not working.

It's also not doing it every time, since I came to the site between the first time and now, and it worked. I'm on Firefox 24.0, Windows 7, No Script is running but only blocking scorecardresearch, and I access the site with animenewsnetwork.com (no fast. or www.).

I've had it a couple of times also I seem to end up on the Australian site fairly often when I'm following email links.

Edit: I'm logged in on my other tabs but clicked a link from an email. When the page loaded I was no longer logged in and on animenewsnetwork.com.au

I have found that if I come to the site through Google I am not logged in and thus not on the fast server.

1) Is it recognizing you as logged in when you go to animenewsnetwork.com ?
2) Have you always accessed with just animenewsnetwork.com ?
3) What happens when you go to www.?

It never showed me logged out, nor made me log back in at any time. I always use animenewsnetwork.com (well, I type "a" and it auto-fills in, since I come here too often). When it's working, typing the www. forwards me to the fast server. Next time it fails on me (It seemed to work fine yesterday) I'll try typing www. and see if it forwards me.

I thought maybe it had gone away, but it came back just now.

I accessed the site via animenewsnetwork.com. It displayed the address as www. I manually typed www., and it did not forward me to the fast server. I had to manually type fast. to access the fast server. And it has not logged me out the entire process.

Would you mind logging out of ANN, and deleting your ANN cookies, then logging back in and seeing if that fixes it ?

Well, logging back in after the log-out/clear cookies/cache did indeed forward me to the fast server (I had to wait for it to not forward me again). I'll update if I run into the problem again.


[edit] Nope, very next time I showed up, it kept me on www. and didn't forward me to the fast server. I hadn't even closed my browser between these.

It just did it to me again. I haven't logged out nor closed my browser, and I was only away from the site for about a half hour.
