I clicked to submit, and it's GONE! Spent a long time writing it too! :-(
I think you clicked on back to “General Discussion”. Don’t ask how I know. Just guessing here, but I think you can push the “back” button and recover it next time. Just guessing.
The same thing just happened AGAIN!
I clicked "submit". It disappeared!!!!!! The short messages are going through - is there a limit on the number of characters in the message or something?
When I have a long post, I typically write it in notepad or word and then copy+paste it. That way if by some off chance your connectivity blows up or the browser crashes or somthing while submitting, you don’t have to retype everything. Plus with word you get the spell / grammar check.
