Where Did My Post Go? / myLot

September 1, 2016 3:25am CST

I was writing a discussion here about badmouthing when something went wrong. I accidentally hit a keypad which I don't know and my writing was... gone! Where did it go? I don't know. I did not locate it. When this thing happen, I don't really write the same thing because my momentum was gone. I could have write a new discussion but not a new one. I will have to pass an hour before writing it again. It just so annoying because my effort was gone. Of course, no one was to blame but my rushing. Have you experienced this also, while you are writing some discussions, you accidentally hit something and the writing area was gone.

That thing always happen to me when I am using my cellphone for mylot. I always hit a wrong key which makes my discussion disappear. So I have to do it again. It is sometimes annoying especially if I am totally done and just reviewing for some mistakes then, suddenly hit the wrong key. Gosh ! it's disappointing.

Really disapointing, if only I can throw my laptop, I should have done it, but then again, its my fault and not my computer.

I had experienced this a couple of times. It happens whenever I post some discussions in between my classes online.

Its really hard, you want to chase your post by refreshing or going backward but there was none.

@ilocosboy I sometimes write on Microsoft word. It serves as a backup if this thing will happen.

I have in the past, so these days I write my post in Notepad first, then copy and paste it onto the site. That way it's harder to lose what I've written.

@ilocosboy After you lose a chunk of work, you often stop directly typing into text boxes on sites. I also save my posts here with Evernote after posting them.

That happens to me a lot when I use my phone to mylot. Unfortunately there is no save as draft feature we can use here so what I do is I select lengthy discussions that I am writing and then copy it to clipboard so in case it gets lost. I will still have it.
