Hello. This problem doesn't happen to me often and I'm sure that there are ways around this. Sometimes I'm typing a long reply to a thread and my account logs out. When I log back in, the entire message is lost. Is there a way to recover it? Normally if I sense this coming, I'll copy the message before I post it so I can paste it back into the place after I log back on. Now is there a way to avoid losing the message at all?

The obvious answer is when you log in to your account, set it to remain logged in permanently. That way it will not time out on you and you will not lose anything that you are working on. You still have the option of manually logging out when you are finished, it simply eliminates being stuck with a "countdown."

I am still working with stone tablets, but---- My solution is to draft my message on a word processor, massage it, save it, then copy and paste it as a reply, inserting quotes, pix, etc as needed. That will also usually dodge the hassle of "someone else has posted--, do you wish" maneuvering.

I guess I don't know how to do that simple thing or I'm lazy in some way.

If you use the log in that is on the bottom of the forum or click log in from the menu you'll see the check box for Always stay logged in. aislin

I have received a couple message time out errors too. But the thing is, I wasn't on very long, and the overall system didn't kick me off. It just sort of deleted what I typed in to that thread. I remained logged on. These were very short posts too, not like the books I used to write in the past!

What about the first Meav forum? Did that happen after the day we posted there? My eyes are simply visual.

I only keep up with this forum so I wouldn't know. I'd try asking someone there.
