I keep writing long and detailed responses to interesting discussions on here but so many times I only get a blank screen. When I try to refresh the screen, internet explorer pops up a messages saying the date couldn't be submitted. My replies disappear in some instances but sometimes they appear twice.
I also noticed that the first discussion I posted on here never appeared. Am I doing something wrong or does this happen a lot on here?

Huh! I've had that happen on lots of photos I've tried to upload. I gave up on it for a while (images)then I noticed I had problems with it doing responses (white page.)

It has happened a few times to me with the questions but all the time with the answers. Once a question disappeared when I received the 2nd comment on it. I received an email with the comment but when I went to respond to it, the question was gone. It was a very innocent question and shouldn't have broken any rules so I don't think anyone had a reason to report it as inappropriate but you never know.
Maybe you didn't hit the preview and submit buttons, sometimes it takes a while.

I have it happen when trying to put a response in. I've only had it happen a couple of times when I wrote a discussion, but it happens a lot more often when doing replies. I get through the previews ok, but when it gets to the tag page, I get a blank screen, and it says 'done' in the tool bar. I've left the page there to do other things thinking that maybe it's just taking a while, but it's like it's just stopped there. If I hit refresh, I get a double post. (Sometimes I wrote something detailed and nothing got posted...now I type it in notepad and cut & paste it in so I don't have to do it over.) Must be some kind of a glitch somewhere. I don't think it's our computers though if it's happening to more than a couple of people. Maybe you should send myLot to this thread so they can review it for possible programming problems or something. (I'm just glad to know it isn't just me, lol)

I have had the same problem. When it starts that I just leave the site and return later on.

Whenever I get a blank screen, I use the back button to go back to view the discussion (I think I have to hit it twice). There I can see whether or not my comment was added, and it almost always is (and my points are increased by 1). By doing this, I don't have duplicate posts.
