Anyone else getting this "invalid session" thing when trying to post?

It used to happen to me, it was because I was using AOL. I use the Internet Explorer now and I haven't had a problem since.

Are you using AOL?

If so, Internet Explorer lets you post better.

Boss told me that these threads were on a sort of a "timer", if you will. If you take too long to type it out, you'd be "timed out" and the session would be invalid.
Since then, though, Boss has loosened the belt a little, and my own "Hunt and Peck" style of typing has more than enough time to get the post in.

Odd.

I'm not using AOL, and I type pretty fast. Plus, it's only happening in certain threads.

Sorry to not get to this before, but I really appreciate the support of the people who posted and provided some answers.

:celebrate:

The problem with the invaild sessions is that they are almost always caused by something on the user's computer as opposed to the program itself. AOL users have been known to have an issue or two, but IE users should have no issues. The board uses cookies, so you can look at your cookie setting in the Security Tab of IE and see if there's anything you can change that might help.

The length of time it takes you to make a post is set to (I think) 20 minutes now, so that should be ebough time, and isn't likely to be a problem any more.
