I am sick of trying to post and than having it deleted because instead of posting it, this rubbish comes up…
Happens almost every time I try to make a post larger than a few sentences…
Wait…what? Everytime you try to post you end up with a post quote of Frankie’s?

thats epic!

Though Frankie may be epic, I think it would get annoying after a while

If I think I know what you’re saying is every time you post, you get redirected to another page, the best fix for that for the time being, is when you get redirected, click the “back” button of your web browser and then finish your post, then post.
I have run into the same problem many times. Your reply gets deleted after you press the “Post” button. This is one of the problems on these forums I have wanted to get fixed for a long time. It’s honestly annoying when an hour worth of writing disappears. That happened me a lot in the first months of when the problem appeared after the forums went out of beta. Eventually I learned to copy my whole post before pressing the button, but have still lost countless hours of work.

Going “back” doesn’t bring the post back. 9 times out of 10 I have to re type the entire thing.

Has nothing to do with it…
I was trying to understand what your issue was, not poking fun or anything. I just clicked your link and it brought me to a post that had one of Frankie’s posts being quoted.
I know what he is talking about.
If you take too long in the post screen and you hit POST, it will seemingly only refresh the page leaving you with nothing. When you hit back on your browser, the post isn’t there.
I figured it was a known issue, it being so annoying when you make a big post, but maybe it isn’t.
But it happens alright, super annoying. I’ve learned to copy any long post of mine as a back up just in case.

Well then, instead of getting pissed off, don’t you think it’d be smarter to report it as a bug?
