    When posting replies upon hitting the submit button I am occasionally getting a "do you want to stay on this page or leave and if you leave you will losed anything saved" message. I say leave and it takes me to another unsaved copy of my message. If I submit it it says I have to wait so many seconds to submit or else it goes ahead an posts the second message as a dupe.

    Yeah, it's screwy. Here's what I do. Copy your post and refresh. Usually you post is there.
    If not, you can repost it.

    Same here. Not all of the time but it's quite annoying.

    Auto save will come on, sometimes quickly, and hardly noticeable, sometimes it takes longer, depending on how fast the site runs at the moment.
    This is hardly an issue with PF, but he same for other fora using VB4.
    To avoid it, simply click on 'Go Advanced', and if you leave the page, for whatever reason, click 'preview' first, and your post will still be there when you back arrow.
    Not all are site issues or glitches, but a matter of getting used to our new surroundings.
    Its a new format, and it takes some getting used to. I came up with some nice words to be voice my frustration.

    No, the censor won't let me post them.:)
