Re: (...)
Anyone have any idea if there is a time limit on the amount of time one takes to type out a post??? I just spent about 1/2 hour reviewing an artichoke recipe---with all of the instructions and pffft---GONE!!! "TIME INVALID"
I am sooooo ANGRY---I could %@#*!&%%--- the post is not even saved---I have several recipes I have cooked recently and wanted to begin my reviews---I think I will give up for today---maybe tomorrow will be better.
Problem is, I'm typist-challenged--one of those two fingers creatures---ACHHHHHHHCHHHHCHHHCHHHCHHHC!!!!!!!

I have no idea. I know I have thought I was posting something - went to the review post page and forgot to actually post it!
I would suggest typing it in another format - a word processor, your email program, and then cut and paste it when complete. That way you shouldn't loose it! Sorry for all the frustration!

I agree with Erin, Roxanne. If I have something important that is going to take some time, I do it in Word and then cut and paste.
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.

Roxanne,
The same thing just happened to me. I was reviewing the last dinner party, and whoosh! it was gone. Will try again, though.

I always forget to type it into Word first. I just type my post and copy it before I submit it. That way if it loses my post, I can just paste it and re-submit.
