Using 'Quick Reply' for Postings
« on: Wednesday 06 September 06 13:59 BST (UK) »
Hello ,   On two occasions now I have tried to add a response to questions but after pressing post the messages disappear but don't get added.    What am I doing wrong?

Hello again,   well, that one went home, don't understand it.   May I say in passing what a great site this is, even when I have no particular queries there's always plenty to read!

Hello Ray

Well, you have 36 posts currently, so you must be doing something right!  ;D

If I am typing out a complicated or lengthy reply, I often save it on notepad first.  Sometimes when the site is slow, things have been known to go astray and I know how frustrating that can be!

I hope all continues to go well and that you enjoy the site,

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

That should have read 'main answer place' I think I have some crumbs in my keyboard, keeps missing the left hand letters.

Now you have me puzzled - where is the 'quick reply' you mention?

Are you perhaps replying to the email that tells you about the thread, rather than on the thread itself? (sorry if I am insulting your intelligence here, but I'm not clear what you mean!)

I can empathise with the crumbs in the keyboard scenario though - croissants are the worst!!

 ;D
