    Next time pull open word or notepad type it up in there and copy paste it into the forum. I've had this happen to me as well as I think since you were typing it up on the page but not active such as looking at different threads it's my belief that the forum thinks you're idling and logs you out.

    I beleive so too. I always copy, before I hit post, but I have done so since I used Ea's forums.

    @ Poster- By the way the funkiness of the forum is Vbulletin's fault, not Trion's. Trion uses Vbulletin instead of paying to create their own forum, but the way the forum programming acts is Vbulletin's issue.

    Thanks for the shout out Overtkill21.

    Are you familiar with Notepad mikomi? If you are on Windows just pull up Start and type notepad and hit enter and you'll load a very simple text editor. Type everything up in there, then from the Edit menu choose Select All, from the same menu choose Copy, then start your topic on the forum. In the text box hit Ctrl-V to paste (or right-click and choose paste).

    I'm just replying since I got a good laugh from the topic subject being one of the common NPC refrains in the game.

    I've been playing this game, and trading, since Day 1 and I am an honest, if not always tactful, guy. If your site had not been easy to use and logically setup I would have ignored it completely.

    If the Hulker Cafe had been in the game on Day 1 - this would have been a very, very different trading economy.

    I sincerely applaud your effort.

    www.HulkerCafe.com is the single best thing to happen to trading in this game. Period.

    If you aren't using any of the user interface of the forums for over an hour you are in fact idling and it will log you out unless you have set your account to always be recognized.

    The suggestion to use a separate word processing program and cut and past it into your post is a good one. I've never used Hulker Cafe but it looks good and the site appears to be user friendly from the little exploring on it that I've done.
