The site has started kicking me off within just a couple of minutes after signing in, even if I've stayed active during that time.

Sorry about that. I have a script running that is actively trying to stop bots spamming the forum which causes the entire server to grind to a halt. The script will ban that bot and then restart the forum. How often are you experiencing this?

It's been happening every time I log on over the last couple of days.

It should be happening less now. A slew of IPs have been banned and it appears it has slowed down the spam bots.

It does seem to have cleared up.
Thanks.
