Help! forum post gets deleted

I typed out a post that took me 45 minutes showing an entire annotated game and when I hit sumbmit it took me back to a blank "submit new forum topic" page.  It would be ironic if this post has the same problem posting.  If this does post, I would really appreciate a fix on this issue because chess.com just deleted 45 minutes of my time.

Thanks!

I think the workaround is to save the data (I use notepad) before hitting to submit.  Often I have to paste the saved data and submit via a fresh page.

             You FORGOT the topic. Try the arrow that brings you back a couple of pages.  What WAS the topic??   I don't want to read 45 mins.

Thanks Eugene, this problem is not fixed.  I just wasted another hour of my life on another forum post Yell.  Next time I try to submit something I will try your method.  Let me ask you though, how do you save a game you annotate with the "insert postion or game" tool?  Do you know?

I use this first, then insert it.

Once you are done press the "Post on Chess.com" button. Then once the chess board image pops up, copy/paste that into your post :)
