I accept session cookies from this site, which is a very reputable
programming forum, possibly the top rated. Of course, I am going to log
in, so a session cookie is anticipated. They have a short advertisement
page that you are sent when you first go to the site. A banner ad from a
supporter is displayed. After a few seconds you are re-directed to the
main page. I find this annoying, but I guess someone needs to pay for
the site. All in all I prefer that to third party tracking cookies.
You can still access the site if you reject cookies. Everyone gets the
banner advertisement page whether or not you allow cookies. You don't go
to the banner if you are logged in. If you do allow session cookies, you
can skip the ad banner by clicking on the redirect link instead of
waiting for the clock to run down.
I consider the underlying engine of these vBuiltin forums to be php
driven, particularly the actions of the buttons like submit and preview,
but I could be wrong about that I guess.

Not very friendly.
They require cookies. If you have cookies off you'll get the redirect
loop.
You're probably right. I think I didn't accept them. Oh well.
