This isn't a request for technical support, just some user feedback regarding my experience of Paradox Plaza's login architecture when using Firefox.

Password resets for Paradox accounts happen via accounts.paradoxplaza.com, and once you've done a password reset, you're logged in, so you can go straight to the forum.

The 'sign in' button on forum.paradoxplaza.com, however, redirects to login.paradoxplaza.com if there isn't a live login cookie (or whatever).

As far as web browsers' password storage systems are concerned, accounts and login are two different sites.

I didn't bother to remember my password when I reset it, since my web browser does that for me, so I now find myself having to manually go to accounts.paradoxplaza.com every time my login cookie expires, which happens far more often than I would expect given that I ticked the "remember me" box when I logged in.
