Redroger- in unread posts the ones you've posted on (either under someone else's thread or one you've started) appear with a yellow folder in left column.

Maybe we should make a note of the specific circumstances when it happens and post the information here so that the technical crew will have some data to work with.

The only problem with that is, in the case of the replies that vanish before you post them,you don't know what you did to make them vanish Grin I wrote some post as practice and did what i thought i had done.Which was when i was on the spell checker i added a smiley, then went back to the post and it was still there Huh

To me the number of readers of this post (400+) suggests that there is a problem. The number of respondents suggests that either people are reluctant to post about the problems, or they have difficulty in putting the problem into words, as I know myself. Let's really see the extent of the problem for the techies!

I find this problem to be sporadic.  It hasn't happened to me during the past 10 days or so but, the next time it does happen, I'll try to post as many details as I can.

It's not that 400 (or whatever number) people have read this thread but that the thread has been read 400 times. I myself have read it each time a new reply has been posted. Since there are 21 messages on the thread I've read it 21 times.

Aghadowey, I take the point, at the expense of adding another one!
