Need to re-login every 10 to 15 mins - annoying!
#1

When I became member here I was required to sign in when I first entered the site and then I could stay logged in for a long period of time. Nowadays I need to re-login after like 10 minutes or so. It is extremely annoying since at least every other post doesn't go through and I have to copy - sign in - open the thread again - paste. I have the same computer and same internet provider so I assume that it is some safety feature with the site requires a re-login every now and then. If that is the case I kindly ask to have the time increased. I can accept that a member is automatically logged out if he or she is not active but reading posts or typing replys is not being inactive. The time should be at least one hour or more.

I stay logged in for months at a time. What browser are you using? Are you using AOL?

I use Firefox and also have no issues. The only time I have to re-login is when I transport my notebook from work to home. As it picks up the different IP it requests another log in.

I love my 968 for what it is & don't hate it for what it isn't!

Your issue has nothing to do with the site...sorry you are experiencing trouble.

it is set to 1 hour of inactivity

i would suspect either the browser (AOL does not work and vista must have new history enabled) or that cookies are not enabled

Ok, so no prob with the site then.

I'm running mac with safari browser and that may be the cause although it has worked well in past. I have had updates so that may be the culprit here. At least I know now where to look.

Thanks

This is a bit off topic, but I always log off every time I leave the site, for no particular reason, just habit. Are there any pros to staying logged on all the time, vs. logging off each time you leave? Thanks.
