Can Digit please increase the password timeout!

Help~Is~Here · 30-06-2007, 01:25 AM

Digit's password timeout has been annoying me badly and discouraging me from using the forum quite consistently. Can we all please ask Digit to increase the password timeouts to a more longer period, so that we dont' have to annoyingly log in every 10mins to post someting or to check messages!

Check the option "Remember Me" when u log in and u'll never be logged out from forum.

well.. that's not good if you are in a cyber cafe.. is it?

But I think when u'll log out from the forum, it'll not remember u next time.

I need a permenant solution for things at my home. Cafe is only secondary. I know that Digit can increase the time out in the forum administrative settings. And people with knowledge of PHP will also agree

oh come on, they must have kept the timeout such for some reason. they won't change just coz u don't like. especially after u've been given a solution by vg. since u access net at home, just select the remember me option

Ok.. I'll settle for that now

It causes extra load on server thats why they hv set the limit.

Com'on dude.. saying 'extra load on server' is no longer a justification in this era! If you are runnig something.. run it properly. If you can't do that, then don't run it at all. This is one of the problems that our Indian Customer Service sector faces. They can't run it properly. If you set up something, people expect the best out of it. How to give them the best is upto the people who set it up. But 'extra load' is no justification in this century!

By the way.. When I logged in I selected the option 'remember me' and I didn't log out and shutdown my computer and opened up the same page, and hurray! it didn't ask me to log in!
