    Logoff while posting

    Okay, before I totally lose it ... I have been logged off with no notice more than once while composing a post on this forum, only to have all my post disappear when I try to submit it. I've looked through the settings and have found nothing relating to login time; maybe I just missed it. Anybody know how to avoid this?
    Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.
    That way, if you do criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

    It takes hundreds of nuts to hold a car together,
    but it takes only one of them to scatter it all over the highway.

        I always copy before I hit post just in case.

          A little abrupt einhander but understood. I should compose shorter posts.

          Love your sig F34R, mine is also a 4 door Bronzit. 321,000 actual and still hanging in.

          So I guess we're victims of the spam generation. I'll take this as reinforcement. Most forums have the at least inferred ability to verify members and not dump them on some arbitrary schedule. I've learned that lesson before (copy before post Justin). Failed this time to follow my own lessons. Oh well, thanks for the input guys.

          E30s rule. Funny I should say that. My brother tried for two years before I finally bought one. Totally hooked now.

          Funny, when I submitted this I was logged out again, I copied this time. :)

            Mine is not Bronzit, it is Luxorbeige metallic. My buddy FramkM E30 has a respray bronzit. They look nothing alike. Mine is a lot darker with a brownish hue.
