onbike1939 Posted May 7, 2018 Share #1 Posted May 7, 2018 There is an infuriating fault which happens when composing posts. Attempts to highlight and move/paste result in a disappearance of the words involved and these cannot be resurrected. I have lost absolute jewels...jewels I tell you..which should have been preserved for posterity and it's a scandal....oh yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur ★ Posted May 7, 2018 Share #2 Posted May 7, 2018 I have a similar issue in that the forum software corrupts my words by using them and punctuating them incorrectly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dottleshead ★ Posted May 18, 2018 Share #7 Posted May 18, 2018 I'm not sure why the 'shit' was tagged at the end of my original sentence. I honestly didn't plan it that way. Maybe I suffer from Turrets Syndrome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddmaxx ★ Posted May 23, 2018 Share #8 Posted May 23, 2018 If you do something to a block of text such as format it into italics or copy and paste it to somewhere, make sure that you re-establish your cursor beyond the end of the text. If you do not, then whole blocks of gems will disappear as if they were never there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many treasures gone never to be regained....it's a tragedy. Must these treasures be buried undisturbed as in some Pharaoh's dusty tomb until some gentle hand in time unknown reveals them to the world’s adoring gaze.
