Disappearing posts

'Posts keep disappearing before they are posted. Just as you are getting near the end... gone. This is still happening today.' 

I posted this three weeks ago, after suffering in silence for a few more weeks.  It is still happening today.  Isn't it time this bug was fixed?  

And while we are at it, can the default group when making a post be changed to General Discussion?   The current system is impeding discussion.

Writing Your Own Post is also made difficult in another way that I've brought up before. For some reason when we're writing a post we're not given any means to Save as Draft. But once we're editing an already published post then we get the Save as Draft button on the page. Should be the other way around!

You know I should use 'Save as Draft' more - in ChinesePod, and in life. :)

哈哈!I guess we could post "Comment Under Construction" then go back and write it as an edit so you can save as draft...

..my default is "bababardwan"...it's encouraging me to talk to myself. Perhaps this was a popular user request from the survey,hehe ;)

LOL. How did you get that default Barbs? My default for posts is 'Elementary learner' - true enough, but I like to cast the net as wide as possible. Blanket bombing. I don't like my chances of getting a response otherwise. Surely ChinesePod doesn't want my unhealthy/whingey/whiney posts targeting the vulnerable Elementary group? :)

I think because I'm guided ,everything defaults to that.

弱势。。哈哈 ;)

嗯,这个生词“弱势”挺有趣;想起来一个英文说法
