This has happened to me many many times. I do long posts, and sometimes search for links to support the content, and often go over that alloted time.
I just sign in again...

How curious. I've read your mentioning having to sign in again. I have never, in all these years on OBT, here on NT or on the many other vBulletin forums I belong to have EVER had to sign in to a single forum after I have joined -- Some places allow to select a continual signed in status. Maybe your son could help you figure out why this happens to you.

Good hopes in your direction.

does this happen to me.

I log out with every finished session, now. I do not stay logged in, and let the cookies guide me. Ever since the "big down" at OBT...I have decided to log out after every use. If you choose not to log out...things might be different.

In the older versions of vBulletin I did NOT have this issue. I think it is in the software here. That is my observation!

OBT has some real glitches, worse than here BTW. I have gotten lost in a sign in LOOP there. The only way to fix it was to leave, and sign in with the little box at the top and ignore the big window sign in.

But I do not have that issue here.

mrsd...another way to "backdoor" into a vb forum....send yourself a link to a post. i keep one in my favorites. you can get right back in.

but there is a time out thing with keeping the posting box open.

I have never had trouble signing in here. It is only when making long posts, or getting called away while making one...you know distracted by phone calls etc, that it will ask you to sign in again. This happens when you hit the submit button, only, for me, and not every time either.

The loop at OBT was very frustrating. You sign in, then go back and it does not recognize you...around you go, sign in and no recognition...that was only with the large sign in box. It happened to me twice there.

But not here, no loop here.

Oh MsD.... My apologies - I beg brain failure (of whatever kind!! )
I somehow ended up lumping you along with other complaints I have read, here and there, over time... which DOES mean I find you more memorable than any of them...

Hope you are snug and warm this evening. This is the first time in 2 years it has been cold enough here to run the heater.. Thank goodness the wind finally stopped, or it would be really bad by morning.

sometimes I have had that happen and I can log back in then use my back button to get back to my written reply and when I submit it goes thru on that time.
