"Invalid session" comment

[KentKHI]

I tried replying to a post and when I hit the submit button I got a page that said "invalid session" I tried to post a few more times, and then I recieved a message saying that I couldn't post so many times in such a short time. when I exited a checked the board, I saw my reply had been posted. What does "invalid session" mean, because it seems to post anyway.

I guess I'm just a little confused,

Make sure your starting point is:

And not an IP address for starters.

Isn't this what happens when you start a reply and don't submit it for a long time - say, an hour later? Don't you idle-time-log-out after 10 minutes or so, which leads to the invalid session?

AAR this beast has caused me to lose a long, excruciatingly detailed reply that I had just composed; you can't go "Back" in Internet Explorer, so it's lost
