I have also noticed that, sometimes, when I click the "+ Reply to Thread" button I do not get a "title bar" in the window but rather just the same narrow dialogue box as if I had hit "reply" instead. Sometimes I do . . . and sometimes I don't. In some instances when I didn't get the "title bar" I just hit cancel and tried hitting "Reply to Thread" again until I got it . . . or exiting the forum, come back in and try again.
It's usually not a big deal. I just like to have the "title bar" when I post SB Trivia.
The new & improved timeout protocol is working like a champ however!
