I am tied of these two messages:
1. Your session timed out while posting. Please go back and try again.
2. Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.
I am not english speaking man. It's take me some time to print message, to check it, to copy some code to it and so on.
I don't understand why session time out is so small.
Also I can't understand why, when I hit "Back" I get second one.
Thanks.
This is a problem with the server, and it happens to me regularly as well. I speak English as you know, but type(poorly) with 2 fingers :-[.
I find the bst thing to do, is select all and copy just before hitting the post button, then if it fails, i just hit refresh, then paste and post again.
Very bad. I thought it is controled by Forum and not server.

Casper is right, this is caused by the server, with our webhost sourceforge mirroring the webservers: the session authentification is unique on one machine - if this machine is busy when you send posting, you'll be redirected to another server to authentificate you, with another session code. Authentification then fails.
The developers of SMF (the forum software we use) promised that the next release of SMF will contain a fix for this issue.
