On editing a post, I keep getting that message and doing anything wipes out the site and I have to start all over from "Home."  The only way around it seems to be to edit in Notepad or another text editor, click "Modify" and re-paste my whole post.

I thought maybe it was some kind of delay in getting "into" Hawaii from the mainland or perhaps the site is reloading all the previous embedded videos while I'm trying to edit or something, but it seems to happen also with another board on the mainland which uses Vbulletin(?).

I also get a lot of "Waiting for....." messages in my tabs when I "Open in new tab" from another post or going to the next page on a thread. (I was thinking maybe I have an undetected key logger on my machine because of this.)

Now I'm a new user of Win7 :barf: and Internet Explorer 9 :barf: so it may be something on my end, but since it happens only on two boards, I'm suspecting it's not on my end.

I do believe that the radical and crazy notion that the Founders meant what they said, is gradually soaking through the judicial system.

every few days for the last month or so, i will hit post, and i will get a message that says "you have not entered any text"
i have to hit the back button, and cut the post i just made, hit the forward button and paste in the text and hit the post button to make it work
