Session not found or cookies are disabled:

As of v2.0, Star Kingdoms requires cookies to create user sessions. A session stores a special code that allows the server to identify which account you are logged into when playing the game. In previous version the session code was stored in every link but that is not a secure method of storing sessions. Cookies are a faster and more secure way of storing sessions. Many people are not optimistic about enabling cookies because they do not know how they work. A cookie cannot damage your computer or access any personal information on your hard drive. The government says cookies are safe.

Star Kingdoms only uses cookies store session data and does not share that information with anyone.
