@rolena-hatfield @daeus @aratrea @………
I don’t know who exactly is in charge of the coding and stuff for the forums, but I have found a few times now that after I post something, when I try to edit it, I click save, and the topic reloads etc… and my entire post is GONE! I can’t get it back, and I have to completely redo it!
Why is this happening? Is there a way to fix it? Or does it have something to do with MY computer?
I don’t know how many other people here have experienced it. Just thought I’d bring it to your attention
You can pronounce it however you want.
January 16, 2018 at 7:36 am #60360@dekreel That sounds frustrating–sorry you’ve been running into that! Is there a recent forum thread you can point us to where you’ve had this issue? I’m wondering if for some reason the forum software thinks your comments are spam and is trying to remove them from public view.

Spam?! Hmmm, that makes sense, actually. It’s happened about three times, and all of those times, I remember that the posts were pretty long. This one was long, too.
If it helps, here is another place where it happened. On the very first post on the topic.

I had the same problem! I tried to start a thread in poetry critiques and when I edited it, it disappeared.

January 17, 2018 at 9:25 am #60458@aratrea I don’t remember right off the top if a whole thread disappears or not. If it doesn’t disappear, it would probably be on the topic list, but I think the topic itself would be completely empty.
I do remember that I had to create a completely new thread the last time it happened
