Anyone else run the spell check and find the post gone?
All my precious so vital words?
GONE!

Yup...but I keep forgetting and doing it anyway! Word doc with spell check first, then cut and paste is a GOOD thing! ;)
Great idea. I'll try to be that organized!
But here I am typing in the orange space, per usual.

OK. I've lost a couple of really good posts, especially one on methyl b-12 that I worked on for hours -- and then thought a moderator had pulled it for some reason. They assure me that's not the case.
I lost another post because there was an interruption in my internet connection.
I don't use spell check, but sometimes I search on a topic or member's name, and have lost shorter posts that way.
What I do now, when I sense that I've invested time and talent into a post, is to save it as often as I think of it, every paragraph or so. That way I keep my train of thought, and development of ideas, without disruption. OK sometimes it would be better if they *were* disrupted, ;D but still, I like sending the post as a unit, hot off the fingers.
All the best,

Sometimes when I have trouble with this, I will write my response in WORD and then cut and paste it into the post reply. It helps some times.
This seems to be a "timed out" error of some kind.
When this happens to me I click on the "back" button on my browser. Then I can recapture my (cleverly written and especially thoughtful) post by copying it. I then open the forum in another browser window and can post my words into a reply window.
Voila! 8)
