Logging off.

The forum keeps logging me off really quick. Like I'll sign on then step out of the room or check on of my other forums I go to and when I come back not eve 10 minutes later and I'll already be signed off so I loose all the new replys and topics...

Is there anyway to change this so it doesn't sign me off so quick?

I'll look for something...

(Java, can you check this out on your experimental forum if I don't come up with an answer in time?)

I couldn't find anything either...

Okay, wtf? Maybe it has some sort of built in time-out, for security issues... In which case, I wouldn't be able to help >.>

OKay. It's just annoying.

I've found an easy solution: every few minutes, simply click at the picture at the top.

I've been experimenting with my own account here, trying to replicate the problem, but nothing has come up yet. And unfortunately I think my forum was deleted. Possibly because there was no action or anything. :/

but the thing is that I'm always busy on the internet..
I go to like two other forums, read a few web comics and talk to people.
And by the time I check the forum again it already signs me off..

The other forums I go to have a longer wait till it signs you off and I though I remembered once while trying to make a forum that there was a setting you could change to give it a longer time.

Bah, I'll just get used to it like I said.

strait from the faq section.
Why do I get logged off automatically?
If you do not check the Log me in automatically box when you log in, the board will only keep you logged in for a preset time. This prevents misuse of your account by anyone else. To stay logged in, check the box during login. This is not recommended if you access the board from a shared computer, e.g. library, internet cafe, university cluster, etc.

So, shall I take a poll on whether people want the default for the "sign me in automatically" box should be checked or not?
