That's odd, I haven't had to re-login in a long time. Do you know how to check your cookies in your browser? you can see which cookies are being used by TTOL and when they are set to expire. Perhaps they are getting deleted from your browser rather than timing-out. My "logged in hash" for "ubbt_hash " has a 1-year expiry; so I believe you can't blame the forum but need to look elsewhere for the cause.
