I did that when I was writing Mimi’s review, should have done it today, but never mind, see if I can write that much again………….lol
Sorry about that stuff up you had AhLungor. My first ever attempt to post a review (64's Nadia) the same thing happened to me. I wrote it on the sydforum page instead of in word and I took too long and when I tried to post the website was telling me "that my token had expired." I didn't even know what the fuck a "token" was or how to unexpire it. With my to and fro-ing trying to post, the auto-save fucked up and I lost everything I'd written.

You'll notice the admin section now has a permanent notice up "how to have auto-save." That is because of me. I contacted them to see if my work was saved somewhere else, or whether I had to re-write it.

So I had to re-write it, but as I didn't know why I'd lost it, I did it on the forum page again - and I lost it all AGAIN. So I wrote it a third time, and I lost it all AGAIN! If anyone knows how long some of my reviews can be, you'll know how punishing this was to me psychologically. I was about to give up on the forum entirely, which means none of you gents would have known my dulcet presence at all. I guess you could have learnt to live with that.

So I ended up writing the **** out - from memory alone - FOUR TIMES! It was murder.

Finally I appealed on the forum with my first ever post entitled "Tried to post."

Since then, for AR's I write in word then get the website up, then

right click on bottom bar

click "tile windows vertically"

Select and drag words from the word window that comes up over to posting page.

Simple.

This for the benefit of others to know exactly what to do.

I don't know how you made this mistake Ahlungor, you must be the most expereinced guy on the forum - I was new! Anyway, you showed great good humour about your stuff up. In real life, are you always such a placid, optimistic and happy guy? I guess so.

Ok, I'll read your report now.
