Forum posting "improvements"

[jastaV]

Hi,

Again one of my post/thread is gone lost!

.... I have catched the reason, this time: my inadvertence!

As I said it's not first time, I type/edit a post, then press "PREVIEW CHANGES", examine the way post looks, go after some last changes, press again "PREVIEW CHANGES", at that point leave without saving!!!!

... It's the same field of oddity as when we press Next turn instead of Save turn playing a scenario..... but such things happens, not only to me, I hope.

So, the suggestion, quite obvious: ADDING A SMALL PUP UP WINDOWN ADVERTISING YOU ARE LEAVING WITHOUT HAVING SAVED CHANGES!

May be an improvement for next time Forum goes to maintenence?

..... please, let me know such a thing happed to you too!

Sorry Jasta. As far as I know, vBulletin (the forum software we use) doesn't have functionality for this, and we won't start hacking/modifying the forum software on our own; waaay too many ways to mess things up if we do

Thanks anyawy!
I'll pay a major attention, on my own: it'll work for few next days......

But please, do not say I'm the only one meeting that troubles!

Can't speak for others, but I honestly can't remember having that problem. But then again, I've written posts that have gone through as much as 10 or 15 iterations of previews before being posted; I just use the feature for what it is worth
