An hour? That's all? But what if I want to write a novel? I'll never have enough time!   

I'm curious to know why a timeout was set up in the first place... perhaps just to keep a member from taking 15 minutes before posting and the post being no longer relevant because two dozen other posts have been created since?

I was actually thinking 2 hours would have been better... I used to set up my review posts... then watch the movie and then add my thoughts and my ratings afterwards. 

Ken... feel like doubling it?

It should work now for longer posts, taking as long as an hour.

Just out of curiosity, what was the time limit before?

And another thing, how long does it take to all new posts marked as read if you just open Invelos site and leave the browser open? I would prefer that we could do the "mark as read" manually.

Whatever you did also had an unexpected side effect on the "unread topics" icon.

As I'm a person who has his browser open all day long (not the Invelose site, just the browser) I can return after hours to this site and be informed about "new" replies I already read hours ago.

So, in the course of the day basically all forums indictate that there are supposedly new replies and the indicator becomes useless.

I had this the very first day. I'm not sure why it worked for me, but I cleared my full cache and Invelos website cookies and no longer have this problem.

Then again, could have been a fluke
