    Login time

    Is there a way to stay logged in until I manually log off? Site kicks me off after about 5-10 minutes of inactivity. Just curious.

    ...I'll guess no. Why? I don't know that either...

      I never get logged off...and I'm talking days sometimes. I'm using Firefox. What browser are you using?

          Administrators and moderators can stay logged on, they are part of the system maintainers, but the others are timed to prevent slowing down the server and denial of service attacks... The remember me box is normally just so you do not have to keep typing in your password each time!!!

            The remember me function works but I still get logged off a short time later while inactive. I mainly notice this while trying to post coins for viewing or while typing a reply. If I have to stop during these two functions for any period of time before finishing, site will make me log on again. I use the Firefox browser. I will check to see if my settings are causing this. Thanks

              Same here and I'm not a mod or admin, just a normal user.
              It has never kicked me off, not once ever.

                Hmmm, I haven't experienced this either. I use Google Chrome. I can't remember the last time I actually had to login on the computer. lol

                  I reset Best Answer due to the fact that Jim's answer wasn't true.

                    Remember me should work for all users and as long as that browser window stays open (the one you logged in on) you should remain logged in. It logs me off also if I don't check that box or if I close my browse window. I log in once a day with the box checked and keep that window "live" through out the day.

                      Peter, when I had the same issue, I followed your instruction. Been staying logged on with no problem since.
