I'm a multitasker, so I'm not constantly at this forum, but I find if I don't do anything, it logs me out far too quick, like 2-5 minutes. If we could increase this time that'd be small, but convenient.

Click "Remember Me" when you log in.

Log out time is 30 minutes so there is something going on with your computer/browser. What browser are you using and are you using a mobile device?

Pretty sure I did that, I'll have to check.

Firefox, no mobile.

I don't find this to be too much of a problem. It takes a matter of seconds to log back in to the forum and I'm stating this where as I have a case-sensitive password which could be harder to type than a traditional password as well as a name with special characters. ie. "!"
Beyond that, it's just a matter of being too lazy to retype a short user name and a small password.

I have Firefox. I check the "Remember Me" box. I have never had a problem. Log out and log back in while checking the box.

My issue was it was happening multiple times in the course of an hour.

But in any case, as embarrassing as it is to say, I didn't have the box checked. I'm surprised...

So you didn't have the "remember me" box checked, you've checked it and you're fine now?

Sorry, I didn't know if I was understanding you correctly.

Pretty much.

I really thought I would have... it's a programmed habit to me now.
