I have been losing lots of appends recently... Im
just wondering if anyone else has. There is nothing
worst than having to re-write something you lost.

O'course, I lose them all the time.. and then my following
appends with cursing and so forth magically POOFS soon after.

wait, I'm confused, Poetry... Is losing posts even worse than
heavy weapons??
Try to clear this up for me,

Go back and look at my post on this very subject :b
To summarize, @restarting your append will cause it to poof.
The only cure I've found for this is to not screw up the first line.
Everything else can be fixed with @back.

Simple fix:
POST BOARD
or
POST <note> BOARD <post number>
Works wonders, really! Write what you want on your card, ending and
appending to it as often as you like and just post it when you're done...
lot fewer worries about losing everything you've written if you lose
link, takes no longer to write it on the paper and put it on the board.
No, edit doesn't work ANY better, but y'all know it doesn't work
anyhow so why keep trying? If editing boards gets changed I'm SURE you
will see it among the weekly code updates.
Cheyla, who wouldn't have made it through the expies posts otherwise.

the point is they shouldn't have to use a card.

no, they -shouldn't- have to use a card but cheyla posted a
perfectly good work-around for the problem.
sometimes you have to be flexible to get around life's little
nuances. if you can't be bothered to be flexible then i guess
you're just gonna have to live with life being more difficult than
it could be.
boards work, i'm sure they are practically at the rock-bottom of
things for the immortals to fix, and would be a real pain to fix, at
that.

Another thing to watch -- seems like if you append to a post wherein
the 'appends' count is different than the number of appends you can
read, it means there's a messed-up append in there. Another sign that
post is the way to go :)
