    Errr.. . did DP change the length of time before the session expires and logs you out? It seems longer now, since I was away from my desktop to get some snacks for prolly a good 25mins. I came back and I'm still logged in.

    Well anyway, if this is true, this is sweet. Always got a bit annoyed having to re-login several times after browsing other sites, checking mails and going back to DP logged out already. :)

    All you have to do is check the remember me box next to the login area and you won't ever be logged out. I have been logged into this forum since I bought this desktop 2 months ago. :)

    Yeah I could do that. I just don't want to. What I wish is that it wouldn't log me out until I explicitly tell it to by clicking on the logout link. Or if I close my browser immediately. But nah that's ok. I've grown accustomed to logging in like 3x in an hour. hhehe.. .

    Why have you chosen 15 minutes, when the industry standard is a lot more? Personally I would like to see a very very big currently active users list :p :p

    No point in having larger active user lists.
