My client hasn't been autologged off lately so I leave it running all night and I went over my total month send/receive allotment.
Ever happen to you?
Has anyone else noticed that they're not getting autologged anymore? What's up with that?

Nope... as far as I know I don't have a limited allotment. Are you on dialup, or does your broadband not offer unlimited access?

Yeah, I have a 10 gb down, 4 gb up limit.
Usually, SL is OK but for some reason with the latest versions my client doesn't get kicked after 30 minutes anymore so I've been leaving it on all night. In 3 minutes it will be the new month so I can re-log. Still, I find it weird that I'm the only one noticing the auto-logoff going away. _____________________

I haven't been getting logged off either, Blaze.
I have unlimitted usage though, so it doesn't matter. _____________________

I've been known to get the odd $150 bill in bandwidth surcharges

I got caught going over my bandwidth limit one month
 Thankfully mine is only during peak times so I can spend all my time making stuff (or more likely posting on the forums) and log in some time after 6pm. Usage based charging is becoming more and more common here. |
