Twice today while I was composing a comment the page redrew itself and my comment was erased.

Is this happening to others? If it is please "Like" this post.

    I now understand what was happening.

    While I was composing comments FS staff were deleting other comments that were inappropriate and in the process my draft comments got deleted too.

    Suggestion: In the upper right of this page, click on the circle which could hold a profile picture. Then see if there are any unfinished posts in the "Drafts" section.

    It is a good suggestion. Sadly, the lost comments were not saved as drafts.

    The absence of any "me too"s tells me the problem is local to me. My ISP has been dropping out. Perhaps that is the cause.

    if it takes longer than a few minutes to develop a post

    do it in a WORD PROCESSOR - and then copy and paste

    a good practice for just about anything you do online - no matter what the site.
