vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Big Boards ||| Time-Out for Cookie

Mark.B · #10 05-07-2006, 07:19 AM

I have always had 30 minutes, and again arcades use if the main reason for this, it also seems an 'ideal time' to me.

But as others have said, I have seen several boards claiming to be "rivals" (including one UK ISP!) who seem to have extremely long timeouts set, not seen 24 hours but I have seen 2 hours. Which seems silly.

Haha! I have just checked that site and you're spot on! It says 51 members, I clicked on five names at 10.15am UK time and all three were last online at 7am!

Desperation or what?
