Like the title says, why if i am inactive for 5 minutes or so does the site log me out. Basically if i want to make a thread or something and am in the middle of making my post, the site will log me out and will not allow me to post my thread. This has happened a few times when i was making thread for stuff for sale...

Also if i leave and come back, i am logged out. Is this a setting on my computer or something the site is doing to speed things up... It's quite annoying to say the least...

 

are you selecting the "remember me" check box?

 

happens to me all the time too, i guess the site just logs you out after being inactive

 

come to think of it. I sometimes have that issue when I'm over at chevyhhr.net

 

Well i've tried the keep me logged in thing and it still does it. The weird thing is, i use a couple of different computers when i check the site, and i don't think it does it on all computers.

That's why i thought it might be a setting on my computer. Any input?

 

it auto logs you out after a "ridiculously" short amount of inactive time. If you're reading a long post...refresh the page part way through or something so the site sees activity

 

Antivirus was causing my issue. When I updated to newest AVG, it auto deleted cookies when I closed a browser session. Got rid of it. Problem solved and it also sped up my system.

 

Never happened to me ... Yet. Knocks on wood.
