    My Rant About this GD Forum

    I was writing another rant. A very well written rant. I was at five paragraphs and nearly one thousand words when suddenly mid-sentence the browser takes me to a different page. ONE THOUSAND WORDS. GONE. GO TO HELL PAGAN FORUM. GO TO HELL.

    You don't get the auto save function? I do, and I don't remember ever switching it on or anything. I often visit a thread and notice a message I'd started writing ages ago, that I'd forgotten all about, is waiting for me. Other forums I use don't have that function though, so to avoid the timing out thing, I write posts in Gmail (also auto saves) and copy and paste.

    In the window where you wrote your post, there's definitely nothing in the very bottom left corner of the text box asking you to click to restore autosaved content?

      Myself,if I have a LONG rant or opinion,I do it in an editor and copy-past it in the forum. That way you have a bit of time to proof read it also.

        That reminded me of this old joke:

        Jesus and Satan have a discussion as to who is the better programmer. This goes on for a few hours until they come to an agreement to hold a contest, with God as the judge.
        They sit themselves at their computers and begin. They type furiously, lines of code streaming up the screen, for several hours straight. Seconds before the end of the competition, a bolt of lightning strikes, taking out the electricity. Moments later, the power is restored, and God announces that the contest is over.
        He asks Satan to show what he has come up with. Satan is visibly upset, and cries, "I have nothing. I lost it all when the power went out."
        "Very well, then," says God, "let us see if Jesus fared any better."
        Jesus enters a command, and the screen comes to life in vivid display, the voices of an angelic choir pour forth from the speakers. Satan is astonished.
        He stutters, "B-b-but how? I lost everything, yet Jesus' program is intact. How did he do it?"

        God smiled all-knowingly, "Jesus saves."

                    If everything about this forum keeps pissing you off, why do you keep coming back? Because, let's be serious here, all you ever seem to do is rant.
                    This is a question I'm genuinely curious to hear the answer to.

                        If you are genuinely curious about why I made a post after losing a the thousand words I had typed I am actually happy for you as it must mean you have better discipline with the save function than I do. I would not wish such horror even on you, Juniper.

                          I don't trust the internets. If I do a long post I do it old school in word....word.

                            I generally don't do long posts as I try to say what I want to say without getting exceedingly wordy. My motto is "why say in a paragraph what you can say in a sentence?" Today though I was impassioned and when I started writing I just kept writing.

                            And I enjoy provoking discussion on this board even if the board itself doesn't enjoy me. It's like all my past girlfriends. I'm sure none of them enjoyed me either but I still enjoyed my time with them.

                            P.S. I did consider writing in Word but I have had formatting issues when copy and pasting to the board.

                              Hey, out of curiosity, what was your post about anyways?

                              For copy/past issues you need to copy normally but paste as plain text. I have the same issue when copying from browser to word. If I don't select plain text it shuts my word down! Maybe try using the computer's notepad or something like that? It might help.
