board sometimes reverts to German language, bug?

Hi all,

lately I have this weird issue that sometimes the board displays in German even though I've explicitely set it to English (as shown in the screenshot of my profile settings, see below).

I'm not logging out ever, and don't have to relogin, so being a guest is not the problem... as you can see everything is still in German even when visiting my own profile page which says I'm set to English...

Today it happened when I followed a link to MR from a German site, but there was nothing special about the link itself ( https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=211133 coming from http://www.lesen.net/forum/ebook-rea...tml#post144555 ).

When I close the MR tabs and revisit the site manually, everything goes back to normal, i.e. English. Is there some kind of language auto detection at work here, or why doesn't it simply use my profile setting?

I speak German (it's my native language in fact) but I prefer to have English boards show up in English anyway.

Regards
frostschutz
