I'm logged in, trust me. How else am I posting this? I'll answer that, because I have been allowed to complete my new thread on every attempt < as right now. What has then happened nearly each time recently, I'll click "Submit", then get the error message that I'm not logged in.??? Sorry, but I was logged in. Now I'll need to re-answer the Random question (usually), but at least my well thought-out message was preserved.
Why is this?

Next time you log in, make sure you check the "Remember Me" box next to the "Log in" button.

I found this happened a lot to me when I first became a member. The problem is worse when you spend a lot of time composing your message, perhaps even leaving to go to anther page while researching the topic as you compose your response. It rarely happens to me now. I do click the remember me window, but that can be awkward if you're not using your own computer at the time. What I've found helps when composing lengthy posts is to create them in a Microsoft Word document, then copy and paste them into the forum. If I get kicked out, I refresh my login and paste the post a second time. - Grandad

It may also be your browser. At work the computers use IE or google chrome :facepalm: (neither of which I allow on my home systems!) and they kick me off in about 5 minutes. At home I use Firefox, and never had the problem... :D

Chrome works fine. I stopped using IE mainly because of the lack of a quick response time... I too agree about the Remember Me box....
