This has happened to me several times, and I personally think it is a bug. So I am buffed and lets say an hour into my buff i have to log off for one reason or another... I log back on twenty minutes later and my buffs are COMPLETELY gone... when I should have around 1 hour 30 minutes left at LEAST... 2 hours with a good buff.

Are you sure they are gone or are they just not showing buff icons? I frequently log off for a few mins come back and my icons are gone but the buffs are still there. It really sucks because I don't know when they are about to drop and they seem to wear off at the most unopportune times.

You lose the buffs if you log long enough to have your characters leave the world. 20 minutes is enough for that.

After 15 min., your character will disappear from the world, thereby resetting all of your stats to their starting points. So, if you've had buffs, food, spice, whatever and you go LD for more than 15 min...POOF! Start over.
This isn't a bug. This is the way the game is supposed to work to keep system resource usage down to a minimum. If you need to go AFK and want to stay logged in so that your buffs/food doesn't expire, use this macro:
Call the macro stay_in_game (for example):
/sit;
/pause 10;
/macro stay_in_game
you won't ever go LD with this macro, because everytime you issue the sit command the system updates your position in the world, and therefore thinks you are still active.
