Unfortunately we wouldn't be able to allow this because our premium stories would be classed as commercial activity. Licenced characters such as James Bond or Batman etc. are rigerously protected by the companies that own the copyright to preserve their own commercial interests. It's very unlikely they would give their permission for this. However, there's no reason why you couldn't create your own characters, perhaps with simiular traits of licenced characters, so long as they couldn't be connected in any way.

The logout works by deleteing your browser cookie, which means it's browser specific. So for instance if you are logged in on desktop and mobile, and you log out on desktop, you won't automatically be logged out on mobile as well. In a similar way, if you are using two browsers on desktop, if you log out on one you won't automatically be logged out on the other.

We're working behind the scenes, continually improving the website to try and retain people for longer, although it does seem that many people return, even creating new accounts after having deleted their old ones.

Thanks for bringing this up the fact that transgender male and transgender female would be better options that just transgender. It's been highlighted before and is an update we intend to make.

Thanks for pointing this out. I've now updated the banner so that it links to the correct page.
