after you have typed a long reply press ctrl+a and then ctrl+c. If Pf throws yet another wobbly then you can just paste your copied tetx back in the box

must admit its starting to get really annoying.

never bothered me a great deal in the past but its getting stupid lately, posts getting wiped out, site crashing on me every 10 minutes or at best taking about 5 minutes to open pages.

Can something not be done about this, especially as alot of people contribute to the help of this site and dont complain over the annual membership costs etc

I agree Kelv,

It thought the £20 gold membership fees were used to make this site work correctly and speedily. Seems a shame as its the only website i contribute to and it gives the most bother.

So that's why you press return at the end of every line....

Just hit ctrl a then ctrl c

if it fucks up, you can just paste your text. You'll get to use all of the code buttons etc. then too

Sorry its nothing to do with notepad.

I was brought up in the early days of programming and DOS text editors.
Old habits die hard. But then I am quite old and set in my ways
