What is the length of time set for time out of log in on Macrumors?
Whatever it is, it seems to me to be way too short.
Several times now, I've typed up posts and replies only to find when I submit them, I've been logged out in the background, and consequently the post is lost.
Some forum sites allow you to hit the back button, and your edit page is still there filled, so you can just copy it, log in, and repost.
Macrumors doesn't work that way.
Can't we have one of two options? Either more time to post, or the ability to back up and retrieve?
It's a pain in the neck to have to remember to copy the post before trying to submit it, 'just in case'. And I can't remember to do that every time.
