If you are typing in a text box and editing your posts, and quite by mistake, click on the backspace key in your browser's upper task bar, you will go back to a cached, older version of the page you were on before you go to your current page. If you do this by mistake, you might also click Forward to go back to the page you were on, doing your edit. Well, You might just lose the stuff you were typing in on that page. Another thing bad about using your back button in your browser. If you do it on purpose or by mistake, if you originally liked and commented on an article, those likes and comments will not be seen after you go back to a cached page. You can press the Reload or Refresh button and it might put things back to where they were after you liked a post and commented on it, but then you might lose the page you were on, writing in your text box and doing edits and so forth. You should as a common practice, never go back on your browser. Just don't click on the Back arrow of your browser's upper tool bar. Going forward will make sure that you do not lose anything you typed in and not have to deal with having to start over writing your articles.
You are writing some text, text input loses focus and voila - you are in a previous page and all you wrote has gone. Get rid of that Backspace key!

Yes, we need to be very careful while typing in the text box, a small mistake here and there makes the complete text matter to vanish within a second! So I am very careful while typing in text box! Thanks!

Good. I recommend to everyone to save a copy of every single article you write on every single writing site or blog you write at. Using either Word or Word Pad and saving all those articles on a backup drive. If a writing site closes and you don't get to save your articles, all will be lost.

Thanks for the reminder and great information. I had discovered this some time ago and thought where did my comment go or where did my post go. As you said I refreshed the page and there it was. But you clarified it up some more so thank you.

I always copy the text when I am about to leave that page and put it in Ms word. I check various things about topic when I am about to leave a comment there.
