Okay the smileys are doing it to me again!

I just replied to a post and put a smiley at the end and Boom there went my post all gone!    Now it didn't happen with that smiley, I was using the smiling smiley when it happened.

Hm, that will happen when you highlight your whole post first.

But I didn't.  It sucked too because I typed a really long post then after it disappeared I said, nevermind.  Maybe I'll just give up the smileys.  Thanks anyway! smile, smile.

True, I saw it happen to Facilitator when the post was not highlighted.
He is using Internet Explorer too, by the way.

Hm, that Internet Explorer thing sounds dangerous.

Yup, remember it was happening to alot of people on here that had Internet Explorer a couple of months ago.  From now on when I post a long thread I'm just going to write in an emotion.  If it's a short post I'll take a chance on clicking a smiley, I guess.   Now that worked but it wasn't the first smiley up there, that's the one that did it to me today.

Maybe you should get rid of Internet Explorer instead. You get all sorts of other benefits, too.

When posting, especially longer stuff that would be hard to rewrite, compose your message on your computer in your wordprocessing software or text editor... then cut and paste to post on the thread. Sure can save mucho frustratio.

I hated Internet Explorer... a bloated pig of an application. I enjoy using Safari on my Mac.

That's a good idea, thanks!

Maybe next time that happens, hold CTRL and press Z.  That might get your post back, anyway.

I still prefer the stop using IE idea.

Awesome, just tried it and it worked, thanks!

Agreed...Firefox is easy to learn, too, so don't worry about a steep learning curve.
