I've noticed a technical problem with the software on this forum.
If I am creating a post and whilst I am typing, a fresh message gets posted and I see a little flashing thingy.
When I save my post it disappears. This has happened a lot now.
I've learnt to CTRL C and copy my text before saving it - just in case

Do you mean the notice that lets you know someone has posted a new post while you were typing?
I just click "see post" and it puts everything in order when you post yours.

Just click on the red thingy and read the post that is arriving then it goes back to what you were typing.

or put your post into `review post`,.. and continue to write, then when you have finished just post

Its the feature for showing new posts, it's not so much of a glitch but can be annoying if you lose a post. As the people above had said select "See Post", "Preview Post" or copy the text. I do a mixture of the above.
All the best

Heck, I'd be happy with an "edit" button so I could clean up my typos!
If at first you don't secede, try, try again!
