Walker570 Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Does anyone else in here have the same problem? Type twenty lines of a reply and suddenly it all disappears apart from maybe the last three words you typed. Is this a fault on the Forum system or something I am doing ?

tonker Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 That's because he only typed a line and a half. 17 minutes ago, Scully said: How did you manage to type the above? π Β Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith RW Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 Might be a "time out" thing, I have had this several times on various forums when taking too much time putting something together prior to posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you been looking at my beautiful slender attractive fingers ?Β Β Yes I know I may have touched another key but which? Interesting that someone has had a similar thing happen, particularly with a longish diatribe.Β Shame really because I just give up and don't comment.

amateur Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 I know that it is a bit of a faff, but if it is a long post, why not write it in Word or suchlike, where you can correvt yor spllung, then cut and paste in one fell swoop onto here.

Jim Neal Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 I know what you mean, has happened to me now and again when typing on my iphone, never when on my PC. A little tip I could suggest, if you're typing out a fairly long reply and having that sort of trouble: after each paragraph, select all and copy, so you can at least paste and carry on if the worst happens. Or maybe it's the forum gods giving you a hint not to waffle on so much ππ π Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
