30 Day password reset

Is there any way of disabling this password reset after 30 days thing that makes the forum unusable unless i change my password? Seeing as I am never logged out and thus never have to sign into these forums, the forced changing of my password is annoying and to me seems less secure because it requires that I have to type my password in every 30 days rather than never

Do you have to change every 30 days of inactivity or just every 30 days?

30 days regardless. Sometimes I forget the password im using and it requires the old password… :/

The signing out is actually a very peculiar issue, I'm surprised we don't have a timer which signs you out if you have been inactive for a certain amount of time.

Sometimes I switch users on my computer, come back three hours later and still signed in.

There's nothing wrong with this, just saying… :p

I love staying signed in for an entire month but then I have to change it and I sometimes forget the current password!

I had to do it twice since my existence here.
Both times I used the same password and it allowed me to do so, (:

It always tells me I need to use a different pass each time! And I've had to do it 3 times in the past 3 months!

LOL :P he cant afaik. but that isnt teh issue anyway. This has been addressed many times before, and hopefully someone will actually consider changing this since SSRLs r now getting this.

any staff input at all? It just happened to me again. Even a popup reminding me to do it would be infinitely better than not allowing me to do anything on the forums until i do it.

Weird that it's 30 days, I think I have to reset mine every 150.

Thanks for letting us know! Should be 150 now. Users with the junior member rank had to do it every 30 days for some reason.
