Only in RimWorld is the phrase "31 Heavily-Armed Siegers are currently bombing your base" preferable to "50 manhunting squirrels are attacking your colony"

I'm sorry, Louis; that sounds really, really frustrating. I've had that happen before as well; it's why I always copy my posts to the clipboard before hitting "post"; I've lost many hours to exactly the problem you're describing, and it's really, really frustrating.

Advice: every thing you writing write first in Notepad++ or something like this, which you can write and without saving exit the program. It's great. Btw. session is in most of websites so.. Be smart next time.

Don't go this way!

Obviously the advice above isn't necessary for shorter posts, but it's a tip I've come to take to heart over years of forum community activity.

Plus, it never hurts to to have a local copy of a big write up, so you can reference it without having to go looking up where you posted it in the forums a few months ago.

It's probably too late for this particular instance, but sometimes when writing a long post that doesn't go through for some reason, you have your web browser navigate back a page to where you were writing and the text will still be there. Just copy the text and bring up a new page to post it in.

EDIT: Yep. The navigating back with the browser takes you back to a page full of text.

Let's be adults and decide what language usage is appropriate for ourselves. So long as the language isn't directly abusive of anyone else, a few salty terms here and there shouldn't be a problem.

(Also, FWIW, the OP was pretty tame, though I'm not personally a fan of the usage of Christ's name)
