Thread Name: BS: When posts will NOT submit....
Subject: BS: When posts will NOT submit....
This happens frequently. I type a lengthy post...or a short post...whatever...and I hit "submit". It does its thing (supposedly).

I then check the thread title list to see if it "took", and I discover that it did not, because the thread I just submitted the post to is not anywhere near the top of the list.

Arrgh!!!

I use the "back" button, and recover the page where my post is waiting to be submitted. I submit it again.

I then check the thread title list to see if it "took", and I discover that it did not, because the thread I just submitted the post to is not anywhere near the top of the list.

AAARGHHHH!!!

I use the "back" button, and recover the page where my post is waiting to be submitted. I submit it yet AGAIN.

I then check the thread title list to see if it "took", and I discover that it did not, because the thread I just submitted the post to is not anywhere near the top of the list.

Motherf*&ing &^%$!!!!!!!!!!!!

I glare at the screen in frustation and mutter more curses. WTF is going on at Mudcat Central? Is some sadistic moderator with a grudge against me blocking my post or is the Mudcat program just basically f**ked?

I use the "back" button one more time, and recover the page where my post is still waiting to be submitted.

I block and copy and save the post to my buffer. Ha! This time I've got you, you bastards! I return to the main board. I once again open the thread where I wanted to make the post. I go to the bottom and past the post into the box and SUBMIT!!!

And it goes through at last....as is confirmed by checking the thread one more time.

And I have just wasted another 10 or 15 minutes of my life on something that doesn't matter a hang anyway! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! (laughing insanely and dancing wildly around the room as the Dachshund gazes at me with a puzzled and slightly annoyed look...I have disturbed his peaceful contemplations.)

Anyone else been having this problem? (aside from the Dachshund, I mean)
