I like this forum, but I have not used it much because it has some sort of auto log off feature.
Every time I turn around, it logs me out. Is there some setting I can change to stop this?

When I log on there is a checkbox to click allowing me to stay logged on.

Technically speaking, you are just automatically logging in. The server-side application will still expire your session. It is a side-effect of the stateless nature of HTTP.

Well, thanks for that information. Not being a computer whiz, I dont really know what it means, but thanks. :)

Seriously I didnt see the stay logged in option, either. All I saw was a 'remember me' check box. I checked it.

This is on the page you encounter if you intend to post a new message or reply to a post.

In both cases, make sure you check "Remember me."
