Oh not another test, hang on. Do me a favour and watch out for a test thread in LR in about 30secs. Post within a minute, and I'll try and change the thread title. Couldn't just ask the mods, that'd be too easy.

Hooray. It's time-based, nothing to do with replies.

Here endeth the experiment.

OracleSlave taught me how to do it......

From other vBulletin forums, I think there's a timeout.
