Rather than write a new post, I'm pulling this one up out of the past as a reference...
I appreciate the effort that been made to reduce problems since this site changed over to vBulletin - honest, I really do - a lot has been done. But there is one particular thing that has
really been bugging me tremendously - and I have tried to be as patient as I can possibly be...
"I spend half my time logging back in..."
It appears like the idle time limit has been changed from 60 minutes to something like 5 (maybe 15 at the most?) - I can think of at least one reason why the site might want to place such a limit - but, in light of the fact that I cannot view the site (using my personal settings) without being logged in, don't you think you could "up" the limit a bit?
Sometimes it takes more than a few minutes to answer a post. I get
really tired of writing up a post, press "submit" - only to find out I have been logged out. And this happens often while answering a post within a few minutes of logging in...
It seems as though you can read a thread all day long -- but if you should leave your browser on a forum index page or if you are posting (editing a reply, etc.) - then you have [what seems like] about five minutes before you are [forced] logged out.
And then, when you click on "Log Out", you are asked if you are sure?



Why is it so important to log people out so quickly? Quote:

I would apreciate any and all consideration that could be given to this issue...
Thank You
