It's a simple improvement, but I think it would be nice to have the option to stay logged in.

I don't have the issue. Double check your settings.

I'm not seeing an option regarding that setting. This site makes me sign back in every 5-6 days saying my cookie has expired.

Still here....

Don't have that problem either. Maybe a browser setting.

But it is true, the cookie expires after a while. I think expanding that time period will help.

I dont think it is anything with my settings or my browser. This seems to be the only site i frequent that i have this issue with. It may be the cookie itself and as moderators/admins you may be immune to it.

Duh. I just realized what's happening. When I log in on a different computer or device, it logs me out of any others. That's sort of an inconvenience, as I split my browsing time between an iPhone, iPad and desktop. Most forums seem to allow you to stay logged in on multiple devices.
