Is there no other way of determining activity?  I think 5 minutes is OK, either that or save the content of new posts.

It would have taken me at least half an hour to put my last night sky big post together with interruptions, due to Flicker mixing my images up.

I have used several forums where they save the content of new posts as you type.  If for any reason you loose the page before posting it you can recover the text.

I remember the old forum you had to post in 30 minutes or it locked you out and you had to re-type it all again, that was fun, occasionally I used to save it to a text file, to even compose the post in Word.
