Login Timeout

Ya'll must have gone to a login timeout recently, is that true? Or did I just work faster before. lol Seems that what I used to be able to do was do a little browsing on your forums, switch to another site and then switch back and still be logged in. Now seems just a little time away causes me to be logged off. If you have implemented a time out, could I suggest a little be longer time. Seems way to short right now. Just a suggestion and I know you have your reason for implementing it.

Same answer as at THR.

Really. I don't remember having to do that but then I am getting old.

I'm confirming here as well.

Yep, we've had the same timeout here as at THR as long as we have been using vBulletin, and that's most of the entire history of both sites. And we have given the same advice at both sites - check off the "Remember me" box.

Ya'll are right again. I don't know when the remember me got unchecked but that was it. Been logged in now without a single problem. Sorry and thanks.
