Time limits on posts
Posted: Fri 13 Feb 2004 2:53 pmHi all
A few people have run into a problem with posting messages which I thought it may be useful to let everyone be aware of.
When a user logs in and takes more than 90 minutes drafting a message, the system considers them to be 'inactive' and logs them off. The result is that the carefully considered message is lost.
If you are considering a long message, or want to take your time in drafting, I would suggest that you draft the message in Word or another wordprocessor then copy and paste the text into a message on the bulletin board. That way you can save your drafts as you go along.
Cheers, Jason.
