Test post... sorry... experimenting...

When I hit "POST!" it doesn't post my message, the cursor just goes back to the text box. Does anyone know why it does that? My posts usually work fine... thank you!

THIS one posted, but not the one I'm TRYING to post...

@JasonStiff
Keep trying !
J may be working or traffic may be jamming things
I find that reloading sometimes helps

@JasonStiff seems to be working? There's a reply post from 2h back, should there be any posts in between?

@Smersh Just one I'm trying to do now, and it won't post... these replies I'm typing post fine... so weird...

@Smersh I posted less text and it finally worked, but it wasn't too many characters before... no idea... thank you for your help!

@JasonStiff Increased server load due to new users and possible DoS attacks.

I've noticed it myself as well. The text box should remain filled if it doesn't post and you should be able to resubmit. If the text in the box disappears and you don't see it posted, just means it's taking a sec to process and post.

@sentientdessert Yeah it definitely stays in the box, but hitting POST! only changes the color of the button, and the cursor is then back in the box

@JasonStiff Yeah, that's been happening to me too. You just gotta press to send again when it becomes available. It times out.

@JasonStiff No problem. I spent half a night trying to send a message, but I wasn't alone in that, the site was getting a DoS attack.

@JasonStiff I’ve had that happen too. I just close the app and reopen and it usually is fine. To keep from losing my post, I copy it first and then paste after reopening.

@ZonaPellucida I'll try but I don't think that will do it... the post I wanted to do won't, I posted that plea just fine, and then I tried posting what I wanted to as both a regular post and as a reply, and it wouldn't work... so weird... I'll keep trying... thank you!

@JasonStiff

imma go out on a limb and say the post that won't post has a mix of single an double quotes in an odd number...try removing all the quotes and see what happens...if it works, I'll explain why...if not...disregard me as an idiot

@opie That's quite possible... I posted less text and it finally worked, but it wasn't too many characters before... no idea... thank you for your help!
