Dude that sucks

I just spent the last 30 mins typing up this massive messege. I put my keyboard in the tray and the f5 key pops off(hit the top). So I push the key back in and guess what it does... REFRESHES!!!! NO!!!!! There goes 1/2 hour of typing.... ARGHH!!!

I now know how you feel doc when you lost that 20 min messege to me!!!

*sigh*

Did a similar thing once. I typed a big post up and thought I'd copy it to the clipboard before pressing submit. So, without paying much attention I highlighted all the text before pressing CTRL and V. All my text was replaced with a site link

That happened to me once, so now I have a posts.txt file that I type all of my [semi-] long posts in. That way I can save it and spell check it.

"ctrl z usuall;y works when you make silly mistakles like that..." - So it does, and right-clicking in the post brings up an Undo option. Good, now I can go back to not paying much attention

I always hate it when i'm writing a really long post in some sites, or emails, (hotmail for instance) and it takes to long, ya hit submit/send, and it says you were logged out for inactivity.....
