Thank you all for providing a good module and getting the 3.20.01 forum out!

Now, my request:

I'm stuck behind a 26.6 k modem line (nothing I can do about that at the moment); the 300 second meta refresh on these (dotnetnuke.com) forums makes it very difficult to use this site.  I can't see any way to control this in "My Settings", and I recall that this is a forum-wide setting.

Note that I'm not asking how to fix this on my sites; I'm asking you to change this setting on _your_ forum(s) as a courtesy to those less fortunate (users who are not on a high-bandwidth internet connection.)

Why does anyone need the forum to auto-refresh?  I think that most users are savvy enough to hit the refresh button.  It's really quite annoying.

Is there a better place to ask this question on the dotnetnuke.com site?

Regards,

Mike

Chris, I appreciate the prompt response. 

I'll question the benefits, then leave it alone.  Did users actually ask to have the DotNetNuke forum pages reload every 300 seconds whether they wanted it to or not?  Or is this a case of "rampant featuritis"? :D

In any case, I'll spend my time more productively locating a preventative measure (IE has the inherent ability to disable this sort of thing, Firefox doesn't yet so I'll have to find a proxy or use an add-in.)

Cheers, and keep on adding those features!  :D

Well, at least Chris replied.  :D

Obviously, I can't understand it.  It's just an annoyance to me - I can only imagine what it does to the server's performance when there are lots of users reading the forums here.

Ah well, on to bigger and better things...
