There was a previous thread about participation on the forum. Maybe im not doing something right or not having the right setting somewhere. But I find EVERY time I type a long reply to a post , or view an article that someone posts a link to on a thread , by the time I read the article in the link , or type out a reply that may take me just a few min , I find myself timed out on the forum. When that happens I dont feel like typing it all over again. Heck I would have 100 posts easily by now , but have been timed out so many times that I dont bother trying to reply. Unless I just type out a short reply . Yet I see some posts that must of taken an hour to type posted. I have no idea how they can do that unless they are typing it somewhere else , then copying and pasting it to this forum.
The time out limit I find is less than 5 min before you are automatically logged off the site unless you are constantly jumping from page to page. That is aggravating at the very least.
All the other forums I go to the time out limit is at least 1/2 hour. Another thing on other places , if I am going to type out a long reply or start a new thread with a long post , there is an option to save the post as a draft, then go back to it and continue. I see no such thing here. Or maybe Im not finding how to do it.
I would love to participate more , but Im sick of getting logged out while typing a post after only a few min . Are there settings somewhere that Im missing ? There has to be something Im missing cause I do see some very long posts .
Thanks for the help in advance
I even got logged off typing this post that took me 4 min to type.
