Whenever a post is slow to go through and you're afraid you might loose it, what you should do is click your mouse inside the textarea, click "Select All" from your browser's "Edit" menu and then click copy from the same menu. That way, if your Internet connection to the forum freezes up or the forum itself stops responding, you'll have a copy of your post in your computer's clipboard that you can simply paste into the textarea again if you loose your post, or paste/save as a file to copy/paste/post later on.

Interestingly, I haven't noticed this. I wonder if I've just had lucky timing or if it's only along certain Internet pathways?
A few months back I came across a Web site that shows where bottlenecks are currently occurring on the Internet. But can I remember what it is right now? No. And it doesn't look as though I bookmarked it.
