I learned that little tidbit early on. Probably had to ask someone and it was probably @myklj999 that filled me in on that one. Was a pain until I had it sorted out though. But the copy and paste thing is always a great idea. Never know when you might encounter a glitch...cousin.

@myklj999 I wonder why that is one place you cannot start a discussion from? You'd think somewhere along the line someone would have fixed that little glitch. But then again, they never fixed the apostrophe glitch either. So, there's that.

@porwest I'll have to read this about thee times to understand it. Should I just stop using apostrophes in my titles?

I often copy them just to be safe. Especially longer posts no matter what page I am on.

Yes, I learned that a while ago. Now I enter my discussions on the discussion page and always copy if it's a long one. Thank you for bringing that to everyone's attention! It drove me crazy before someone told me what I was doing wrong.

I was doing just that and grabbed my discussion before it went poof, so I wrote about it, for those newbies that didn`t know.

I had figured that out quite some time back. It does not mean that I do not ever forget and do it. I just do not tell anyone. I put my title back, put my tags back, and paste in the discussion that is suffering from interminable buffering. It is nice to share the info with others, though.

I should do the copy and paste thing more often. I learned pretty early that you can't do a discussion while counting your coins.

@andriaperry Heh. I do too. When I realize what I've done, I DO cut and paste before I make the mistake of trying to submit. Then I rewrite the title.

Me too but I still make that mistake from time to time.

Yeah, been doin the copy paste thingy for quite a while, seems every now and then regardless of where I am on the mylot ship my discussion will fade away. The other thing I try to remember to do is type everything out on word and simply copy from there title and all except any photos you might be using.

Yes, you can't enter a new discussion from the Earnings page. I always copy and paste from Word anyway so it isn't the end of the world if it doesn't 'take'. However it is an inconvenience.
