Default PF Admin.......

I still haven't managed to get it so I stay logged into Passionford on my PC. Not sure why. I have deleted Cookie's etc etc.

Anyway, one thing that really bugs me is when I log in, type a long PM, which might take 10-15 mins by the time I have nipped off halfway to make a brew, then hit 'Submit'. By which time, I have been logged out for some reason and the whole PM is lost!!

If I do the same on other forum's, such as SXOC, it just invites me to enter my login details, then it sends the PM anyway.

Is this a easy/worthwhile change to consider?

Admittedly, it only happens when you take a while to type one, from time-to-time I have to send a bit of an essay and there is nothing worse than spending 20 mins typing a good informative PM to a newbie, then to lose the whole fecking lot.

Until it's fixed, I'd suggest typing any long posts in Notepad, then copy/pasting them across......that way, you'll never lose what you're typing, as it's still there in Notepad!

That's what I was going to suggest. I do that all the time - especially with the longer replys and emails.

I do that when I remember, which is usually for the medium sized PM's, then I send a fooking epic jobbie to someone that one that I forget to copy and low-and-behold it will be that fooker that gets lost.
