Logging Out

Sometimes I forget to log out when I'm done cruising the forums. Do I end up showing up at the bottom as "online" for days and days? Should be I better about logging out?

    No, if you're inactive for a while the software assumes you're gone and drops you from the online list.

    SSteve is correct. the system changes the on-line status after about 60 minutes if it doesn't see any further traffic from the browser. The session timer is set to 30 minutes. That is the amount of time the system will wait before expiring the session - very important if one is typing a detailed post. It's probably better to compose off-line and then paste the post into the on-line editor if the post is lenghty.
