I like using incognito mode on the common use computer in the office so I can sign in to chrome without worrying about it remembering any of my biz.

Any link I click on permies, another forum for example, logs me out and so does opening a new tab and going to permies there. This is something of a bother.

This doesn't happen in Firefox or opera's private browsing. I haven't tested it on Safari or Explorer.

Chrome Version 48.0.2564.109 (64-bit)

I guess that the Chrome version of incognito does not accept/store cookies.
Once you leave the page, without a cookie, you are gone...without a trace.
When you switch pages, essentially, you 'have left'. In order to return, you need a new cookie.

I don't think that there is anything permies can do to overcome this...it is browser dependent.

Other websites seem to get around it somehow.
 
Never trust an airline that limits their passengers to one carry on iguana. Put this tiny ad in your shoe:
