Does anybody else do this?

Postby Kaligraphic » Sat Apr 18, 2009 4:02 pm

Does anybody else sometimes write up posts, think they posted them, and then come back later wondering why they're not showing... only to find them sitting unsubmitted in a tab they forgot about?

Or is that just me?

I do this occasionally, except usually I end up losing those posts because I shut down my browser with them still unposted...

I have done that several times.

XD It usually happens when I'm really stressed, but I'm glad to know someone else does this. XD

You know what I do?

I spend long periods of time typing up lengthy posts and new topics, and then deleting them out of shyness/realizing how angry I sound.

Sigh.

I've done that too, Mina >_> Even though, I've been here as long as I've been here xDD;

I've also left post in this or that tab and forgetting about it for hours.. Or, more >_O;

This is I. Though I rarely do that with new topics, just replies.

Yeah, this happens to me sometimes as well.

In the past, Id type up lengthy posts and -you know what would happen?- my computer would freeze up! So then I try to click the "post quick reply" button but it doesn't do it. Then I have to get the internet back on and type it all over again. It's so frustrating.

Yeah, I do both of these from time to time. I also tend to write replies and then edit them three times in a row after posting them.

I used to do that... but then I learnt from Nate. Just add in some silliness to take the edge off every post :P.

Sometimes I'll write a big, long post and then just decide not to post it.

I don't think that's happened to me, but I'm pretty sure I've done other crazy stuff like that.... I don't remember what they were though.

Sometimes I'll write a post, then decide not to post it. For a variety of reasons.

Sometimes I'll post anyway, and regret it later.

I sometimes type up a post, but then leave it for a while (on a tab in my browser) without submitting it if I want more time to think on it before posting it.
I don't often forget about it though. ^_^

I'm still waiting for *someone* to start a poll to figure out the average number of tabs... Wait... I'll start it. Expect it to show up soon.
