Extremely angry.

I just spent 30 minutes writing a blog post about and endgame, diagrams included, when the 'Click Save & Preview' popup came up.  Following the instructions, I clicked the 'Save & Preview' button; only to find that when the page reloaded, all of my work had magically disappeared!

Now, I'd like to know where I can access my 'saved' work, that was alledgedly saved when I clicked the Save & Preview button.

If I can no longer access it, I'd like to know why the word 'Save' is on that button.  Perhaps 'Preview' would suit, and be less misleading?

Perhaps even more accurately, 'Click here to delete all of your work'?

All help is appreciated.

    Anda;

    Truly wise-spoken words.  I was simply finding a positive way to share my frustration, whilst perhaps in the process hoping to find a solution to the problem.

    Yes, that's frustrating indeed. But in ten years, will it matter? In five years? Why not find some hungry children to worry about, some handicapped people who need some help, or a homeless kitten who could use some loving. Mind you, I'm not downplaying your frustration, but from my 67-year-old vantage point, I'd say: save the anger for something else.

    I don't think being a diamond member would have made a difference. The computer simply messed up -- don't take that personally.

    P.S. Remember, to err is human, but to REALLY mess up, it takes a computer.

    Man... same here... It is wise to try to save a copy periodically.  But when you use the chess diagram sometimes your work just disappears...it sucks.

    Well maybe they just dont care for basic members. I am sure that if we are diamond members that those kind of things would never happened. But what can we do my friend, they dont posese understanding for little people.

    Yes, I don't quite see how we're supposed to insert an analytical game diagram into microsoft word, either.  What, shall we go learn advanced computer programming?

    Very senseless.

    Thank-you, Pavle.
