Btw, when does this 360 timeout go away for me?
The "Activity" is a maximum of 14 every 2 weeks. You need 15 activity to reduce the timeout below 360 seconds. I'm not sure when the last 2 week cycle started, but you should see your activity increase sometime in the next 14 days.
All of this is covered in the "NEWBIE README" thread pinned to the top of the "Beginners & Help" sub-forum. If you haven't done so yet, you really should take the time to read it, and to click through each of the links in that post to skim over the additional information that it links to.
