Thought I'd 'move' this topic here, so mr Greek reads it, too :)

I am really starting to devellop a g***amn pissing hatred to this new way of posting... Nothing's changed apart from those damn annoying clean-upscripts. They log you out, and usually you'd go back to the log-in screen, press 'back' and still have what you typed. But now... Here it comes.
You press 'talk to everyone' and get a lovely pop-up saying "something went wrong" and EVERYTHING YOU TYPED is gone. I usually look at the time to see if the cleanup is near yet, but that doesn't always work.

This is the the third damn time I lose text I had been working on for a bloody half hour. Please fix it, or let me go back to the old way of posting because this generally ruins cantr for the afternoon for me, I loose the mood to play every time.

2. [ctrl]+[z] when text field is focused after something went wrong error should make text return
3. you can disable js in your browser to not use ajax
4. you can disable "events autorefresh" or sth in account settings to not use ajax
5. I am happy with performance improvement it gave us, although it was not globally significant enough to make me really happy
6. I can change cleanup script to not log off recently active players.
7. I'm not reading most of threads, so it's usually better to post in general support if you want your problem solved. Usually it's easy to do, but first I must know what's wrong.


Then, from me:
Greek, if you can do option 6, you'd make me a happy man! :D

Option 6 implemented. Now auto logout won't happen if you were active in last 15 minutes before turn.finish
Try it.
