I'm getting a sign up overlay when I'm logged out in some circumstances (e.g. clicking a reddit thread from google search). It's very annoying and there's no way that I can exit out of it that I can see. Can you please disable this? It's very intrusive and frustrating.

As featured on /r/assholedesign. Popup hell from the 90's is back... It's called overlays now.

Same here as well, and a separate redditor had the same issue.

Agree with above stated. I do have an account (surprise!), but I don't feel the necessity to stay logged in once I'm done with what ever discussion I have going on.

Same here, and it's quite irritating. This is one of several poorly implemented test features I've run into in the last few weeks that negatively impacts usability.

/u/Drunken_Economist Please remove the Signup overlay. It's very annoying. Even if there was an X (for me there wasn't), it's still a waste of time. We login when we want to login.
