Gosh, I hate when it happenes! I was typing a new discussion before this and my browser crashed, so I lost the whole discussion.
I hate that because I lost the time I spent to write that, It was a long discussion:/
I haven't the wish to retype it again, I think I will post tomorrow because I'm very tired.

Yes, It happens with me sometimes and this makes me go crazy cause after a long writing with certain way of thinking I find it hard to write the same again.
For users with more than 500 posts I think it's easy for them to come over this problem as you said by copying and paste from a notepad.

count me in the list jamz.this thing has happened to me a lot of times. i can't even count the numbers by my fingers. Worst thing was when i was still a newbie in mylot, i was below the 500 posting mark. i could not copy and paste. So when the computer or the site itself encountered problems, in a flash all that i have written were gone. I had to retype everything, and of course organize my ideas again, and think of the right words to use. I start from scratch again. Thank GOD i finally reached the 500 posting mark and i have made it a habit to copy all my posts first before posting them. This way i don't have to retype my discussions over and over again if there are system glitches.

very good reply I give you the best response! You had my same troubles! me too before to reach 500 whenever I copied and paste link of a video for example, it popped a message that too tell me copy and paste isnt allowed till 500 posts, and then I lost discussions in that way! It happened too in private message! Now I think it is better to take the habit to write posts before in the notepad and then post the discussion to avoid problems!

Not on MyLot because I'm using Firefox only since 1 years. Before I used IE and many times it crashed and I've lost a lot of discussion in other forum where I'm member..
Mozzilla Firefox never crash when I'm on MyLot. It crash only when I open many tab (windows in the same window) but then I re-open the same session.

Too many times and then i started using netscape... no issues after that...
I remember couple of times when mylot was not responding also i lost discussions... when you get back in you see that the discussion is already going offtrack and you wont feel like posting in that any more...

This works only for users with counter more than 500 cause less than that number you aren't allowed to paste any word while writing.

Like heck yeah, I really hate it when it happens especially when you're typing something long and yo put your heart in it. Then suddenly you're computer quit on you, like heck I didn't even save it...well some like to type it somewhere then paste it to Mylot. Well I can't do that yet I have to have more than 500 post to do that right...which is kinda sad.
