That kind of reminds me when I spent hours on a post, and then it didn't post because PC went down and it disappeared.

Yeah, that happens to me alot.Though i don't spend hours on posts but pretty long ones and PC goes down and they're lost forever.Just frustrating.

When I type a really long post, I tend to copy it incase a site goes down.

I've done that before on other sites, but not this one.

EDIT:

Also...



THIS IS AWESOME.

And whats more, I don't really post long posts, but when I do, its gone forever due to the fact that PC went down. :C

I dislike this SO much. Not the fact that PC goes down a lot, but at my laptop that simply LOVES to crash my browser and make whatever post I happen to be typing, especially a long one, disappear. It makes me SO frustrated that I have to recall whatever the content was and retype it, hoping my browser doesn't crash again. My laptop sure is lucky I'm still patient enough to put up with its antics. My patience isn't going to last forever though...==..I really need to get a new laptop. Now I make sure to copy whatever I have typed after a bit. Lesson learnt, but my laptop still finds numerous ways to troll me. Zz...

I remember trying to make good introductions in New Users/Welcome only to have PC go down on me.

I then have to recreate my whole post, and sometimes I may end up with an accidental merged double post in case of lag. When PC goes down, I have to hang out on my second most active forum, Ever Grande City or just hang out on the Pokemon Showdown server.

Now that must have been really annoying.

I haven't really been on the Showdown server at all... Might try it soon, just haven't been too interested in competitive battling recently.

There was a time (probably before any of you were around) where PC was down for a whole month! It was the worst!

PC once went down when I was typing a really long PM. I: Had to retype that message like three times because I kept being logged off (didn't realize I could log back in and it would send) and/or PC crashed.

I haven't been around as long as Luke has, but I do remember a time when PC seemed to be down regularly, or at least whenever I wanted to log on. Seems like things are better now, or I'm just lucky.

Whenever a post is too long I always copy it before I send it.

JUST IN CASE.

I'm too wary of someone else on this computer reading my posts to do that. x: If they hit 'paste' then it'll show up, obviously. So I just wing it and hope that it works.

That's a good idea. x: I might just try that haha.

They're...posts on PC. Not international secrets.

xD; What do you post about that nooobody should be allowed to copy/paste? That sounds scary..

Haha.
I just meant stuff that I talk about with friends via PM that I don't want other people to see. Well, more like stuff that either few or no people offline know about me. x;

Why not just copy something like "lol" after yr done?

Because I'm paranoid and would worry that someone would ask why I've copied something stupid.
