I sodding hate this site sometimes!

Options
I've just lost a serious post asking for help with something and the lot disappeared when I clicked preview post and I got logged out.

When I signed in again, all I got was a blank page.

This has only started happening since the last forum upgrade.

It's so frustrating.

    Its happen to me before due to know activity for a while then made a post. Occasionally web site being slow has also resulted in no post being made and when you go back to previous page just before you clicked reply you lose the post thats with firefox

    Which version of IE?

    Use a proper browser e.g. here never had any problems.

    IE8.

    I have been logged out whilst writing a post many times before but as soon as I logged in again, my post always showed up. It's only since the site upgrade that I now log in and only get a blank screen with the word 'done' written in the bottom left corner. Kinda makes me feel like I have been, tbh. :D

  • That happens to me all the time, it's so annoying when you lose a massive post. Nowadays I right click and copy every post I do so if I get logged out I can just paste all the text back in.

    I do. Very regularly. I buy via Quidco a lot, especially at the moment (doing house up) so everyday I run CC to make sure there's nothing that might conflict with the cashback tracking.

    (I don't really hate the site btw :o.) :D
