Loosing posts/replies because you are asked to sign in again
I am new to these boards and any type of forum in general so sorry if this is an obvious question.
Several times now I have written responses, sometimes very lengthy ones, only for them to be lost because I am shown the log in page. It is a bit disheartening.
What am I doing wrong? Is there a time out feature?
Thankyou in advance and sorry again if this is obvious. I am a bit of a technophobe

There is indeed a time-out feature - mainly for security purposes.
When you log in, there'll be a box under your name that says 'remember me' - if you tick that, your computer won't time out - but you will always be logged in (not so good for a shared computer). If you don't want the 'remember me' function, it's best to just get in the habit of copying all your post before you go to post - as frustrating as it is!
Don't worry about asking, it's really not a problem :)

That's good to know you can unclick it thankyou. My computer is no longer password protected so was wary of clicking keep me logged in. But now I know it is not permanent if you click it the once I will use it. Thanks

I've had the whole losing posts thing happen to me, its very upsetting sometimes to have to go back and retype everything you already have typed. Maybe I'll take into consideration clicking the 'keep me logged in' (or whatever) box too.. Nice thread.

I never knew RYL had a time-out feature, but then again I've always had the 'Remember Me' box checked, and I've been here for years! Learn something new every day.
