Forum posting timeout

I'm tired of trying to post and having the forums time out before I hit post. Here's what usually happens...

I'm reading/posting on forums from work. In the middle of a thread reply, I get a call, or an email. I do actual work for a bit. Eventually, things slow down again and I go back to my forum post. I finish writing my reply. I hit POST. The screen refreshes, and I am left with a blank post reply screen... and nothing has been posted. I can't hit "back" and get my post back. It's now gone forever.

What's really irritating is that usually this happens on longer posts. Usually, I am not going to go through the effort of re-typing the entire post again, and just leave disappointed. I expected this to be discovered and resolved soon after the new forums were re-released, but alas, this has not happened.

PLEASE INCREASE THE TIMEOUT ON POSTING.

Thank you. (Copies post to buffer in case THIS gets eaten.)
