These forums log me out after like 1 or 2 hours and its annoying because I have it set to remember me, so it should remember more than just my email address and keep me logged in for a longer time

    Yes it does, and it sometimes does it in the middle of a post, and if you don't have recovery software (like the Lazarus add-on for Firefox), your post will be lost.

    They know it, and they won't fix it!

    Someone said in one of the threads I belive if was Jockem, that the combination Adobe's upgrade cycle, and Jive's it will be about 9 months before the next upgrade. The next upgrade might fix this issue, then it might not. The only sure cure is split the login server for the Forums away from the Adobe Store. Nether should be tied to the other what so ever, for any reason.

    The reason for the timeout is indeed because the userid of the forum is tied with the Adobe store.

    However, using the same login ID & profile is fine, but they don't need to use the same cookie for the login expiration.  After all, the URIs are different: forums.adobe.com vs. store1.adobe.com, so they could use a different cookie.

    This is the only forum on the whole Internet where I need to login every few hours!
