I'm curious - WP doesn't log you out even if you close the link. Does that tax the server? And why do they do that anyway? It's annoying to have to remember to log out every time, or else you're logged in here forever.
Some cynic suggested that inflates the "Online Now" number...
One benefit to not being logged out is: when I get emailed reply postings and am linked directly to the thread, I can't reply (if logged out) without dropping out of Discussions entirely to log in, and then navigating back to the thread. Early on, I forgot which forum a thread was in, and took a while to find it again.
