Of all the annoying changes & differences with the new system vs the old...…….this has to be the worst....
After taking the time, doing research and preparing a lengthy response with links and argument, when hitting submit I'm locked out of the thread because of mod action, is really irritating when the thread is locked & closed from further replies...…...but what's worse is when threads are merged, and my whole response is GONE and have to start over. I ain't playing that.....atleast in the old system, it would save my response and I could chose to either resubmit or delete as appropriate.
Airing complaints about Moderation actions in public is a self defeating action, take it to the
PM system instead where it belongs.
The complaint isn't about Mod actions but to the unsubmitted post being deleted during those actions & no longer retained
You are saying Moderator DIDN"T delete something?
\
NO......I said the new system with the site changes now deletes prepared but unsubmitted posts, whereas the old system retained them.
When you are typing up a response, then hit submit, but are locked out for mod action......when they unlock it but your post is deleted and no longer retained like it had been before the site changes.
Make sense?????
Gee you already know the answer, why continue to complain about it?
I am glad it no longer retains unsubmitted posts, because I can start new in the same thread without the unsubmitted stuff I decided to drop still sitting in the box.
I tried different ways to deleted it without submitting, it comes back like magic, I even left the thread then come back, it was still there, even left the forum to someplace else, come back it was still there.
I ended up erasing it, then start a new comment in place, but even then when posting the new comment, previous quoted posts were still there, making it a mess.
Ohhhh I hated that!
Never experienced that anywhere else, and I have been a member of 50 forums since 1998.
