So I am working with a member selling him parts,
I had to edit a message.
Which was quite lengthy.
When I went to post it an ERROR came up and wiped out my whole message
Said I timed out.
Now I have to go back and wright the whole thing over.
Some times I could just SCREAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
 
Note to yourself in the future......copy your message before you edit it so if you lose it you can paste it back in and then resend it vs. losing everything. Little trick I've learned over the years when writing papers in college and for work.
 
Sometimes when you log back in it will be there.

Remember to click the "stay logged in" box when you log in!
 
You can write your message in Microsoft Word or something similar then copy and paste it into B bodies.
 
I was still logged in, said I exceeded the 5 minute limit.
 
You type to slow :poke:.
LOL........ years ago I took computer classes................ the bitch instructor in front of the whole class told me I type to slow, I asked her! How fast do you hang drywall? I walked out, went to the collage office and had her *** fired.
And got my tuition back.
 
I type slow, but hang drywall pretty fast for being 69 years old!

Note pad. I seldom use the smart phones, other then to post a hasty "PM sent" when trying to score loot first......(usually come in third, behind Hunt2elk, and Paul Boucher)...hehe
 
Sort of related story: In a college sociology class (required curriculum) I had this female instructor, nice looking blonde maybe only 8-10 years older than I was, that liked to send signals how she didn't like white guys. As long ago as this was, she enjoyed telling us sorts will have more difficulty getting all the 'good jobs' with equal employment opportunity laws enacted around this time. I replied "Isn't it, or shouldn't it be simply about who the best candidate(s) are for the job...grades, experience, and other qualifications specific to the job?" I had already worked in the real world for a few years before going on to college and had held a supervisory position in a machine shop. We had people that wouldn't show up for work, repeatedly late, or would constantly **** up their work (they often had a listening to the right way to do the job problem), or only wanted to do their 'favorite' jobs! Friggin nightmare trying to get jobs done on time with my boss saying is that job getting out the door TODAY? Then I'd have to work 3 or 4 extra hours, load the truck and drive it to the customer so it got there on the day we said it would be there. Favorite people? I had them cuz they'd go the extra mile when in a crunch...they weren't lazy and didn't bitch unless there was something to bitch about. Sharing these experiences with Miss Sociology was a kick.
 
Refresh the page, it will show up as grey text in the reply box, click inside, it's back.

I've typed a novel, put the phone down, come back, pull up the page and there is nothing there, gone, nothing.
Hit refresh, works every time.

If it takes a while to type a message you will see Draft Saved, message is saved, have to refresh.

You should be able to go back to the reply box and the text should be there. I go between my laptop and phone to post photos and the text is there in the box.

So because someone hurt your pansy *** feelings, you get them fired, take away their livelihood. Hmmmm, sounds like a millennial or someone who raised one. Pretty horrible thing to do.
 
And FBBO screwed you how? I'm not seeing it!
 
Next time just make a phone call when your dialog is longer than your typing skills allow.

I hate typing and especially hate texting unless it's for a brief message.

guess you missed the part where the teacher whos supposed to be Teaching them instead embarassed him by putting him down in front of the whole class.
do you somehow think thats Part of the teaching process?
to mock and make fun of a student in any way?
or just a shitty teacher who got what she had coming?
 
Times have changed. Speaking as an aging boomer, we took a good deal of ribbing and a little smacking by the teachers - some had it coming (including me liking to be a smart *** when I could). They got their moods like anyone else. One time with a cranky teacher, I made the mistake of asking him if his wife burned his eggs that morning...oh it was an unwise comment as he smiled (I think he actually thought it was comical) before he walked over to my desk. With one super hairy large arm he 'escorted' me to the chalkboard to write 100 times on it a phrase about respecting my elders...
