Does anybody know the length of time of inactivity on the forums before being automatically logged-out? I can't tell you how many times I've been working on a semi-long post/reply while alt-tabbing to work-related windows, and hitting "Submit" to find I've been logged out and my post is lost. This is REALLY frustrating and it would be nice if there were adjustable timer settings in the preferences.

i think the logout timer is about 45 minutes, but i refresh the page every 20 minutes and so never get logged out

If you find it happens alot (I do aswell, it happens), I've taken it to habbit that after 10 minutes of leaving it idle, I'll "COPY" the muscle of the message so that I don't lose it.

NOTE*** This has also happend to me while IN-GAME, writing hour long emails and have had "Lost Connection" ruin it, and IN-GAME, once that Message comes up, You cannot get behind that window to copy it (as far as I know, it's been a while, But then again they nerfed my marine backpack from week one and now I have to be combatant, so maybe they un-nerfed this one!!!)

If they do change some timers, can we get that idle'd one changed aswell please?
