I was giving a review and system wouldn't let me make any more comments. Tried several times but would not accept. Went to the closing comment and wrote them and they it would not submit.

Any headway on this situation? Take care. Vern

Open another window, log in there, and go back to the first one and continue working.

I live in a vintage house. All my windows are nailed shut except for the one holding the AC. Thanks. Take care. Vern

He's tried uploading several different image formats for his cover page but none work. Also, please post here what the solution or workaround is as this keeps coming up, and I don't know how to assist people.

Thanks
Dirk

I had to log in SEVEN times this morning to get rid of seven spammers. If you want me to continue getting rid of these spammers, FIX THE BUG!

I've run into it many times, and keep reporting it, but this never seems to make it to the top of your to do list. It's a big enough hassle that I stopped writing long posts on this site. If it's long, I have to remember to write it offline, then copy it here. And I don't always remember to do so, so I'm sure my neighbors sometimes hear me using a stream of "choice" adjectives. In addition to Bill, Kdot ran into that bug recently with a fairly short post, and I know of at least two new users who got bitten by it too. And those are just the ones I know of.

We can't expect to ever get back to usable forums as long as that bug is still present.

Thanks
Dirk

I am really, really pissed off! I spent over fifteen minutes creating a post concerning my latest novel and when I went to post it, I found I was logged out! This random logging out issues needs to be found and FIXED! And, then I find out that when I was told "you don't have permission to post here" because of the logout, I CANNOT get back to the page I was working on. This stinks!

Every time I delete or suspend an account, I get logged out. Please take a look at this.
