I may have missed an answer to this somewhere so I'll apologise in advance.
When I leave the pc for a few minutes or so, I'm logged out of this site. It seems that the site bumps you after a period of inactivity. Is this right or is it just me having the problem?
yep we get the same thing as well , its only happened sinse the site changed ownership, but its no big deal we just log back in and bingo :P :P
I think its set to 24 minutes of inactivity.
I get logged out too, a tick to "keep me logged in" would be a nice addition, if it can be done, leave users with a choice.

Auto-log out? Good idea and am all for it, all forum sites should do it no matter what the forum subject especially with the use of permanently connected Broadband links these days. I'm sure theres some members would'nt want some of the more younger people in their house logging on!!! Plus it helps to keep the site bandwidth charges down and in turn hopefully those of the users.
I guess it could be annoying for those out there living on there own mind so maybe an optout could be provided?
I think anything between 15 to 30 mins is ok, plus an immediate log out on closing the browser.
As for time taken to write posts, why not do it in word, spell check and then cut 'n' paste? Saves getting logged out halfway thru on a long whing!!!
Ok thats my tenpence worth for what its worth
Erm >
Just noticed that the "auto-logout" works when you spend time in the chat room.
When you leave the chat room you have to log back into the site.
Me being me and still having grey cells left in my cranium I stop and wonder why.
You are logged into the site so why the necessity to log back in ?
Yes OK I know because the chat room is on a different server.
Educate me PLEASE>>>>>
