Uhh I keep experiencing a rather annoying bug. Making new topics doesn't work until I do it again the second time. I go to create a topic, type my stuff, then hit the "Create MEssage" button at the bottom, and then go back to the forum topic listing, but my new topic isn't there. When I try it again to make a new topic for the second time, it works. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Weird, I thought it was gonna do it for sure with this topic, but it didnt happen here, how ironic. Is it a bug in the Blender3D forum only? That's the only place I've been posting in. Not sure if it happens in other forums.

it happens in Poser too cara

Have you cleared the cache? If you hit "refresh", your topic ought to show up.

Sometimes if you take too long to write, your words just won't take, I think it's because this board has some nasty, impatient gremlins that like to eat messages that take too long to write out. Make sure you always copy and save your scribes so you don't waste an entire timely episode writing out your thoughts all for nothing when they don't appear after you hit post and they wind up lost in the belly of these word eaters. At least then you can just paste them in again quickly and have that say you wanted to say and just say nuts to the impatient forum gremlins.

The timeout is set for 15 or 20 minutes it seems. I'm getting better about pasting to my buffer or even opening a notepad window if I really need to think about something before posting. I wish it was longer. Sometimes we do want to look up a reference or check to see if a model exists and it just takes a while.

Hi EsotericFury, hauksdottir is correct. The sessions automatically time-out after a period of inactivity. So, if it takes more than a few minutes to write, copying the text is suggested. That way, if need be you can just paste and post. Hope this helps. Best wishes, LillianH
