Why, after I write a long post and try to post it the forum tells me I need to log in again and I lose a nice post in the process? It hasn't done this in awhile and now I've lost like 10 posts this week? Fairly frustrating.
It happens occasionally on all forums I go on tbh.
You auto logout after 15mins, used to always happen to me and piss me off, now I just open two tabs and leave one of them on "viewing online" so it keeps me logged in until I get off, haven't lost a post since I began doing that tbh.
I can't quite pinpoint it, but it seems like this stuff is happening more often after a certain someone came back after like a 2 year sabbatical or something.

Really? That is weird my account doesn't do that. And my test member account doesn't either.
While viewing a thread or posting a reply you'll time out after X amount of minutes... I think if you're idle on the main part of the boards it'll leave you on.
This is a simalar problem I have had since day one. The timing out after x number of minutes, but I do think its longer then 15min. But its something that happens unfortunatly. The way to avoid being logged out and losing your post is to click the remember me box when you log in. The only down side to that is, although your post goes up, it still acts like you logged out and logged back in and any new posts you still had to read are not flagged as new anymore.
