It seems as though this website logs out members very quickly, especially if you open another link or window. What’s up with that? I figure it was related to reducing demand on resources.

Not seeing it: I have been continuously logged in for weeks, if not longer.

Did you check the "keep me logged in" box when you signed in?

It also may be related to how your browser handles cookies...

Like silverlifter I remain logged-in for ages unless I clear history or cookies. Just before completing the password box of my log-in details I always check the "stay logged-in" box. That seems to work.

You may have a setting that clears cookies every time you open a new window?

Yes, I've been caught by that a long time ago when I didn't notice the choice. When you log in, there should be a "stay logged in" box you can tick. Same as most sites. The reason for not keeping you logged in otherwise is for your own security - same as the bank, although much less important.
