I have noticed something that is driving me up a wall. I log in, find an interesting thread, and type my reply. If it’s a short reply, there’s no problem, but if it’s even of moderate length, when I hit POST, I am taken to the login screen again, which is followed by a “No Thread Specified” page. So I have to re-open the forum, then the thread, then post again. The only way I can make long posts is to copy them after being written, and paste it after logging in again. An average reply to a thread takes me a minimum of 20 minutes.
Is there a login timer during replies on this someplace and is there a way around it? It’s quite frustrating.
