It is OTT. Once logged in to the forum I can see no reason not to stay logged in for many days. If you were to then attempt access to a "more secure" feature such as booking a site, cancelling a site or changing personal details than one could be required to re-verify login credentials at that point, but for forum posts it should not be required.
The HMRC site does exactly that - at the point of submitting tax return or VAT return etc one is required to enter username password again, for "less critical" transactions its not required.

I may well be wrong but if everyone who logged in stayed logged in all day (whether they were active on the site or not) wouldn't it overload and perhaps crash the CC server?
It's not necessary to log in when browsing but only if one wants to post a reply/book a site etc.

It's not only happening when there is inactivity, many times when I have started on a post on here and have pressed on the reply and nothing happens, only to find that I have been logged out without my consent. The only way round this is for myself to type faster.
