Solution:
If it reloads go 1 page back, there is your post. Copy it, go one page forward and past. Then post. :)
- Had this with a few escrows myself, no problem

Originally by: Sulavan Basically, other forums are usually light on things like pictures etc. Eve is pretty heavy in that department.
uhm - wrong again. Never before have I seen a forum which has so very hihg demands for low signature images file-sizes and attributes. All forums have avatars (many even animated) and I do not think the smileys are causing this Killed my sig AGAIN! :p http://www.ninc.org/krubarax/images/2d/verydisco.jpg |

On a more constructive level: 99% of the time, the problem lays with the internet (including your connection - slower connections are more vulnerable than faster ones, though fast ones are not immune).
99% of the time the problem lays *sic* with people who do not seem to see that the TC in TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control, which means its a proper, high-level protocol that was, by coincidence, also designed in a time when lines were guaranteed to be a lot slower than anything the people moaning here use, and that (unlike UDP) "guarantees reception", meaning it provides facilities for retries or proper handling of such conditions.
Slow lines (lets say even a 14.4 modem) should NOT be the reason that a post is sent to digital nirvana. --

I apologize in advance if I have missed something, but you seem to be stating that the forum sessions, effectively at the application layer, should not break because the transport layer is using a protocol that guarantees reception? ----------

Nope. And I edited my original post and added that timeouts can of course occur. Its up to the browser to handle these (its up to IE for instance in a sense to gracefully catch timeouts and preserve, ideally, the input from the HTML post operation before and restore it at a click of the back button).
I was primarily making a point that slow lines should not be kill-all argument to tell people to stop whining about forum glitches.
I myself get the same issues with trashed posts regulary, with one of the lowest-latencies ADSL ISPs in the country, on an OpenBSD firewall that specially prioritizes small packages and has a token-bucket queue to give high priority to http traffic. I have no other issues of this sort with dozens of other forums or websites. Makes me think that its not people's slow internet lines to blame and that the OP is having a valid point. --

I reread your post and saw what you were saying, and agree fully ----------
