why do I get auto logged out if I take to long to post

A lot of times the answers to difficult hardware or software questions take some typing and research. I'm a little peeved that this site chooses to autonmatically log you out after so long. Then, when I finally go to post my answer its either log back in or if I'm not careful I lose all my work.

I can understand having this auto check on warez sites or pirate forums but on a forum designed for helping others it makes no sense. Often to get the right information to the requester you need to do a few paragraphs and even some searching, and the lazy people who just post links to other answers are really no help at all.

When I sign in, I remove the check from the box "remember me" I do this for all forums I visit and this is one of the few that causes me to be logged out automatically. Look into it for me if you would like me to hang around here, otherwise I will be on my way to a more user friendly site. I really hate the auto logout feature and will not tolerate it for long.
