I just lost a 800+ review of the Sepultura album Arise because I hit the f5 button and, when the page reloaded, I wasn't loged in. Ouch If the same thing happened on PA I would still have the review.

Just reporting this issue because more than once I had problems being loged in in the main site. This issue does not happens in the forums.

Make sure when you sign in, you check the "stay signed in" box. I've lost a review in a similar situation due to a timeout error.

I did learn a valuable lesson, however - to ALWAYS write my reviews in MS Word before I post it here. Wink

I usually do that, both the checking and the worth thing, but this time I started writing because I was listening to the album and thought about doing it. Lost the whole thing. Unhappy

One of the solution I have in mind is an "auto save" feature when someone is writing a review...

But before I find the time to implement this, I modified the Stay Signed In checkbox to be checked by default. So it will help to minimize the timeout "issue".
