I've lost quite a few posts recently because after I hit "submit" it just takes me back to the blank post thing. (you know, the thing I'm typing in right now) Is that a forum problem? Or is it just me?

I think that might have happened to me last night. I know I responded to the Nutella comment... but then today my post wasn't there.

It's a forum problem, unfortunately. I blame everything on our internet service provider because, well, it usually is their fault.

My personal philosophy has been "wait ten minutes and it will get better". Usually that works

It just sucks when you write a novel, and then it's gone. Lol. So now I copy all my replies.

I've had it happen, and if I go back one page it's usually still there.

Really? Mine isn't. (just happened again)

I don't have much luck with the "still there" thing either Every now and again, but rarely.

It really is highly annoying when that happens

I used to lose posts when the board would time out while I was writing and I'd have to log back in. The "Back Page" trick has always worked for me (Firefox), but if I know I'm going to compose an opus, I'll do it in MSWord and "copy and paste" it into the post. That way I know there's always a copy and I'll get to use the spell and grammar checker cuz I is not a gud speler.
