Has it ever happened to you? You make a lengthy type of discussion, proofread over and over and then you hit the start discussion then you found out you are no longer on line! It happened to me awhile ago. I made a discussion supposedly about antioxidant and cancer but now I guess I haven't. Ugghh! I spent so much time typing and it's gone. All to waste. It happened to me several times. There's nothing I can do to retrieve all that I had tyed. I hate it when it happens.

It has happened to me numerous times. I go on the discussions with no responses, want to be the first in line. And because of that, I make sure my response is worthwhile and intelligent enough to understand. I read the post, go to relevant sights, type in the urls (since I do not like to copy someone else's work =--copyright and the fear of being sued for thousands of dollars). Then I find that three or four have beaten me to it and my answer is now redundant.

Yes this has happed to me many times at other forums at my old house and sometimes no my internet connection would not work for somereason then I would have to repair it but you dont know when it will happen and of course I write a topic and its lenghty and takes me awhile to do then I push the response and im off line then I get mad and give up because I forget a lot of what I wrote which is very annoying.

It sucks. All the effort of typing and gone to waste. Just the thought of redoing it is frustrating. I guess, we're just bound to give it up.

ADSL splitters - The splitters of ADSL broadband internet connection.
Yeah, it’s really annoying that we had lost all the content that we had planed maturely and typed carefully. This had happen twice to me when I was using the dialup internet connecting system. So that time I always saved what I had typed before sending. I have never faced any off line problems while summiting responses, commends or new discussions again after using the ADSL broadband internet connection. Hope that you will never face any off line problems again. Good luck!

Yeah, it is the reason why I'm having problems with my connection! I'm using the old non-reliable dial up. Aargh. Thanks for bringing it up to my attention. I'm still considering if I will use broadband. I think I am the only one still using it.LOL Thanks again for the response(:

Yes, I had suffered this kind of thing, which upseted me much. Once I colored my picture on computer, when I almost finished it, power went out. So I pay very much attention to saving the file after that case.

hmm, I feel confused w/ ur matter. U must be sure that after u type your discussion then you follow next option, not review it. Ops, I'm sorry if I hv bad comment. But, can u explain again what absolutely happened so that u can get this trouble?
