Session time - has it changed ??

When writing in the forum I do now miss my letter, it looks like my session are cut off. I have to sign in again and all my writings are lost!

This has not been an issue earlier. Have there been any change on the forum that cause this?

The time out for the web site is 15 minutes. If you're inactive you'll be logged out.

Couple suggestions:

A) Use Firefox. The message box doesn't get wiped out when you use the back/forward buttons.

B) When you log in, choose the "Remember Me" option. This will prevent you from being fully logged out. If you're using a shared computer, make sure you Log Out at the end of the session and clear your password list and cache.

Hmm.. I'm using Firefox with No-script plug-in allowing "evolutionm.net" (so I CAN see the vendor ads) and "ibsrv.net" (so I can use advanced-mode when posting), and I'm constantly getting logged out before I can finish a reply, or read a longer page in a thread. But oddly, on my PSP with javascript and flash disabled, I'm always logged in and never get booted out.

Any chance you guys would consider upping the session time-out to maybe 30-minutes?? Heck, even 20-min might be just enough to allow me to proofread this senten...



Dang.. seriously, I just got logged out when I went to preview my post. Sure, Firefox kept everything in memory, but I don't store usernames and passwords on any of my computers, so it's just kind of a pain in the ***.
