Automatic Log Out

**Moira** · 06-Aug-07, 23:49

Karia - do you tick the "remember me" box when you log in? I've not noticed the automatic logout, though I sometimes lose my BB connection altogether, thanks to BT. Worse still, my "trusty" laptop often shuts itself down for no reason, usually when I'm in the Chatroom

Hi Moira,

That must be really annoying.

I never click on the remember me button, would it help do you think?

Sometimes I get logged out whilst private messaging which can mean having to type the whole thing again.

Karia, I have noticed the same thing. You can be typing in a fairly long post and then find yourself logged out. If you aren't careful you can lose the whole message and have to start again. Total pain! As you say, the time duration is not very long.

Thanks Ricco,

If we are logged in when we check a post and start the reply process to it, then surely we have rendered ourselves active merely by the act of doing so and therefore have not been inactive for the half hour cut-off time.??
