while you were writing......

[mistergee]

can we do something about the"while you were writing someone posted you may want to check before you post" is this really necessary? its very annoying when you hit the post button and it doesn't post and when you check to see what was written and go back...all you wrote is gone...wtf do i care if someone has posted while i'm writing...if it pertains to what i'm writing i can address it after i posted,....and why does what you wrote go away if you check to see whats written...if you ask me it is just plain stupid and annoying....sorry but theres nothing more annoying than writing a lengthy post that may have taken an hour to prep with pics and captions and then have it erased because someone posted "WTG " i think someone should rethink this......
thanks for listening George

Instead of going back to the previous page when you get that message, just scroll down the same page your typed message is on and you'll see the new post. Then, just hit the "post" button again and your message will then be posted.
