When I used to post a lot, I'd keep a copy of notepad or something open, and copy and paste the message every now and then to it.

Have you tried checking the box that says keep me logged in when you log in? I have no problem with posts but I also make sure that box is checked when I log in.

problemchild · 03-27-2008, 02:03 PM

Where is the box?

Take care,
John

when you first sign in it is right there by where you put your user name and password in. It says "keep me logged in" and has a box next to it that you click on and it puts a check mark in it.

You can also Copy and Paste to a Word Document any post you write, before you post it, so if something goes wrong, you have a copy of it.

This happens to me sometimes. So I sign in again and don't press anymore buttons, just wait, the post comes back onto the screen just as I left it. Its not lost.

when I 'go long' on a post - IF I remember ... that's a big IF ...

I'll 'select all' then 'copy' before I try to post it.

that way when the inevitable time out happens... it's saved in my little mouse.
