Is there a way to stay logged in?
Right now I have to login every time I go my forum.
Hey Oregun,
Currently, the community has a logout session time of 200 minutes. If you close your browser this will reset. We are actively working to extend this time even further.
We will keep you posted as we make progress on this.
Thanks,
I learned on all my forums and FB post to make a copy of a my long post and/or reply just in case I loose the ability to submit before replying like your situation. Have now trained myself to check if I am signed in before attempting a reply or post. It is a slight hassle but saves me upset.
For those of us who like to read but don't post frequently it's a pain. Sure, you can read posts without logging in but then you lose the ability to see what you've already read. Not that that works well anyway since it only shows you what topics have new content but doesn't seem to take you to the actual first unread reply.
If I want to post, read pm's or change my profile I get having to re-sign in. For mostly read-only users it's an undue burden.
Signing back in is easy for me. I just click on the dark green sign in button near top of page and do not have to reenter my PW or username. This is true for my 3 different browsers.
are you loging in through the good sam button or the rv net user button?
I am signing in with the Goodsam button. Have not tried the RV.Net button yet.

The old site didn't log you out for days, maybe even weeks. Maybe that is a bit extreme but here is the problem... The site shows a "Reply" button and field whether you are logged in our not. I'm not thinking about whether I'm logged in so I type up a nice reply and then click the button to submit it only to be taken to a login screen. I LOSE EVERYTHING I WROTE!!! This has happened several times. I would suggest to extend the login period to a least several days (this isn't a banking website, 200 minutes is crazy) and also disable the reply field unless a user is actually logged in so they don't lose what they wrote.
For security reasons (hacking) most sites are requiring people to sign out, or the site will sign you out after a certain amount of time.
I had not signed out from RV.Net for years.
