This keeps happening to me; I go to post, and I need to go to the bathroom or something, so I leave. I come back and submit it, and then guess what? this pops up;
So I click Go Back, and then THIS comes up;
So I refresh, and then my entire post is gone. GONE! Like I never typed it. And some of my best forum posts have ended like this before I finally submit them! So can someone please tell me why this is happening?

I don't know. I typed a HUGE tutorial in the Advanced topics forum, and that happened to me. I was EXTREMELY annoyed.

I always copy and paste my long writings before I post them.

Do you use 'Post Reply'? If not, try using it and seeing if it changes. If you do, try using quick replies only, and see if it changes again. I'm not really sure what it might be, but I have an idea.

JeanTheFox and ScratchReallyROCKS, what browser do you use? I use Firefox, and this never happens.

I use Chrome, but this happens on all the browsers I use.
I think I know what the cause might be! JeanTheFox, what kind of internet connection do you use? I use wireless, and it sometimes dis-connects when it can't find a signal for a little while.

I get this too when I wander around with tabs, come back, and then post - is that the case with you for at least some of the time?

The first thing happens because the topic gets closed of deleted, and the second thing happens if you've sent a reply, then just backspace instead of going back to the index
And it only happens if you 'Post Reply' or get the 60-second-rule on Chrome
