I put together a thread of my Fun show trip today. It took a while and now it is gone. Urr. Has anything vanished on you?

Clicking the back button woudn't work?
It said it would post after review but it has vanished. It’s gone. Not in draft either.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Weird.
Maybe tomorrow I will try again but shorten it up. I’m just not up for it now.

Happens to me frequently. I will make a few changes/edits for spelling, grammar, clarity of thought and then the thing just vanishes, often with that "post after review" message.
I often think that the forum gods must be saving me from some kind of derision or scorn, and I decide to just let the post go unsaid.
Now I'm bummed because I didn't get to meet you today.

I just lost lots of mine.....had to post several times. Grr.
Look at the bright side. You’re at FUN and I’m in Iowa where it’s 3 degrees. Look forward to your report
I've had that happen on another forum. The only thing is to try to write it again immediately while some of your thoughts are still fresh. Now, when I am writing a long post I put it into "save draft" before it is done and then continue writing.
I hate to hear that. I know it is frustrating.
I have noticed that all my posts auto save as draft after so many characters.
A good idea would be to right click and copy while you are writing the post. I've had glitches in my internet that would make me lose what I just wrote. Now, if I'm gonna write a lot, I'll copy it a couple times until I get done with it. Then copy the whole thing right before I post.

If you look under Drafts you may find it and can then post it again.

I find that editing can take a thread out.
I had that notice once, but mine finally posted. Perhaps you used names or mentioned a competing TPGS.
Ditto and in all kinds of weather. Can't recollect how many times I've typed something up and suddenly lost everything. What's worse, copy and failed to paste and then can't remember the site or what it was all about. Getting old, I guess.

@Coinstartled is correct. It posted taking it out of the draft folder then when I tried to amend a word, it gave me a notice about needing reviewed. I thought it meant by moderator. Guess not as it seems gone forever. I will try again tomorrow.

I have to man my table by myself sorry I didn't meet you I am leaving Sunday at noon
Stuff happens.
I use a text editor to type posts and then save them before posting them on boards.
Windows has Notepad and there must be a similar program in the Apple world.

Wow... sorry I missed it... hope you can redo it.....and with pictures... those are great reports... Cheers, RickO
I'm looking forward to the do-over.
I have found that in active threads the draft is usually saved, not sure with new ones. You could click preview or save draft at any point.
I actually forgot about that. In my experience, unless you go to My Drafts and intentionally delete a draft it should be there. No?
I tried doing a Google chase search last night as if published and deleted it usually could be found that way. Sadly this was the latest most recent post by you found. Now it's in hyperspace somewhere and hope it was good as traveling at the speed of light extraterrestrials in another galaxy have a better chance to read it then any of us
I lost a thread here once...I pound them out in word and save it that way. The copy and paste to here.

I did the same thing at work last week except I did scream out LOUD with lots of explicit words and I could hear lots of laughter in the back ground. But I felt better and I had to rewrite the work. But don't worry it was all men in the room if there was a woman I would of been respectfull. I work in the Oil Field mostly men.
@ricko I will redo probable Monday night. I do it all on my phone.

Sorry I missed it. I hope you had Fun at FUN!

@kkathyl I saw it and read it and went to make a "like" and it would not let me. It was a good thread. You had Franklin halfs among other things. Nicely done.

I do this with any long post I'm going to make. Personally, I find CU does a pretty good job of keeping your work safe if you screw up, but I've lost replies on other forums by looking the wrong way.
Still, unless I'm in final edit mode, I work in Windows Notepad. Notepad doesn't keep formatting the same way Wordpad does, and works better for me. (For instance, when pasting in excel data.) The only problem is Notepad doesn't spell check, and my spelling is normally atrocious. (Which is why many of my posts end with, "Edit: Becuz I kant spel.")
I look forward to the review, they are fun to read!
