A Couple of Identical Discussions

I have grown used to writing discussionsfor mylot on my smartphone. However it isn't as comfortable as typing it out on my computer.
In the past few days while typing out a discussion and hitting the "start discussion "button,the circle goes on rotating and finally comes up with a screen full of incomprehensible writing with an error number
"Oh dear," I say and start to type out the discussion again.(In the computer I would have saved the writing and merely pasted it again). The same thing happens and there is the page full of information that makes no sense to me.
I give up now and turn to read other people's discussions only to find to my surprise both my discussions are there on the site like a pair of identical (or nearly) twins. In fact there have even been a couple of responses to the post on on top.
Suddenly it strikes me that my pictures must be too big as the picture didn't load.
Thoroughly embarrased I delete one. I resize my picture and edit. All is good now.
I know this has happened to @sofssu too because of faulty wi_fi. Have you ever faced anything like this?

That is why it was so embarrassing for me. Thankfully the ones I deleted didn't have responses

@responsiveme Yes, it's occurred a few times since I started blogging. It always seemed to happen on the other blog site I started with before myLot. It's no longer a site.

So you know about this. I didn't. I thought error message meant I need to start again

Sometimes it is good especially when one is travelling. I agree typing is difficult...Lots of errors

@responsiveme Yes mobile is useful in travelling. Some peoples are perfect in typing with mobile, but I am not good in typing with mobile.

I haven't faced it yet but maybe I am not posting too many discussions for last couple of years. I used to post 4-6 discussions per month in my previous avatar but not as many ever since I created my current account a couple of years back. Let me see what happens when I post my next.... see yah.

@responsiveme I always feel so much better when I learn that I'm not the only one to have had something happen.

I am not good at typing on my phone and prefer my computer. I have tried to upload pictures and go in and fix them up and they would not upload at all.

Oh yes, I too experienced that. Since, I am using my phone and can't edit to resize it , it always says error.
So, I know it was the picture's size so I stopped and decided not to post anymore but just comment.
WHen I opened My Discussions to see if there were still uncommented back comments, I noticed that it was posted after all.

Others faced this on their desktops too...So I think it's a connection problem
