I'm wondering if it's a firewall or other internet security software on your PC that's clearing cookies maybe? Also check to see if your settings (if you have something like that) aren't set up for something like "www.canreef.com" and you're accessing "canreef.com". I noticed that whatever you I enter as the canreef address (ie., www.canreef.com, canreef.com or the IP#), it retains that throughout your whole session.

I'm not running any security software from Telus.
I do run a firewall. (but who doesn't?) I auto-login whenever I restart a browser session and enter Canreef (www.canreef.com). If I get auto-logged out (too quickly) that function no longer works in that session. I'll read some stuff, then hit "reply" and get the message that I need to log back in again. It is almost at the point where I have to relogin every time I want to place a response. Really, it is just the auto-logout that annoys me. I find myself re-logging in WAAAYYY too often.

It almost sounds as if something is expiring or deleting your cookies automatically.
As far as I know there isn't an option for auto-logging-out based on an idle timeout or something. Or if there is, it will be the same setting for everyone. I'll try poking around in the admin panel to see if there is such a thing. I don't have that problem myself but I have the "Remember Me" checked so I don't ever login unless I'm coming in from a computer I don't normally use. If the "Remember Me" option isn't working then I suspect something is erasing or expiring cookies on your end. What browser are you using? I don't think a firewall would normally do it but depending on which one you're using, it might have some kind of "internet security" features enabled by default, that could be interfering.

Ok I found the idle timeout, it's currently set to 20 minutes. That is if you don't post or refresh a page or load a new page within 20 minutes, the board assumes you've moved on and logs you out. If you're getting booted within 20 minutes though then it is something else.

It is probably 20 minutes that I'm getting booted out. That's too quick. I would prefer that to be several hours..or never.
And...once booted...you have to close your browser and reopen it in order for "remember me" auto-login to work. My browser is open virtually all the time, and I just open new tabs for different things. So the 20 minute auto-logoff makes me re enter my password over and over and over and over...
