automatic time-out, wasted 45 min
I spent 45 minutes writing a post, proofreading, correcting and rewriting. When I clicked on Preview, I was taken to a log-in page. The material I had been writing was irretrievably lost. We all know that on some websites you can retrieve previous entries in a form field by using the Back button. Unless the programmers of the forms chose not to allow this.
Trying to search the forums for "time out" I was told that search terms with less than 4 words would not be accepted. I then searched for "posting automatic time out" and again got the message that a search term had to contain at least four words.
I will not post or even use the site again. I don't write for 45 minutes only to have it go down a black hole. I don't need to put up with such hassles. The people who programmed this site must have worked for Northwest Airlines. I also will not check this site for any answers to this post, so don't bother to write any. You might get timed out while you write.
