I'm sure you've all encountered it since after all, you've posted before. So you click the message button and it brings up the blank space to write in. You start typing to see it didn't show up because the box didn't load up all the way, then you have to click in the box with your mouse and start typing again. Ahhh, every time.

I don't usually do that, but it's annoying when I do.

~-~I don't even know what you're talking about. At first I thought it was an editor glitch like the spacing thing, but I checked and some people who don't use the editor said they hate it. So, what? You're not clicking in the box or something? Why aren't you clicking in the box?~-~ ~-~PS: Yea, I can tell if you're using the editor. You know how?~-~

I haven't gotten that in a while, luckily. But I keep getting the "Messages cannot be blank" notice, and it pisses me off, I have to rewrite the message. Probably my internet, but still, it's annoying.

Sometimes when I quote someone and start typing before it's fully loaded, my message will appear in the quote box :S I hate that.

Man, I had to type in whatever I had again.

Just kidding.

Yeah I hate that, but I copy what I type, but I'll just forget that tomorrow. Once I submit and it tells me ****, I just abandon the topic.

What's more annoying is when I've typed out a really long post, hit "submit" only to get the dreaded "The html in your post is not well-formed" error, which basically means that that message isn't getting posted. I've noticed it tends to get caused after first getting returned with the "your post contained a forbidden word" error (like writing "c.lass" without the period), which in and of itself is also extremely aggrevating.

Yep, annoys the hell out of me. I use the Quick Reply function now, I didn't know it still happens in the 'normal' way.

The box loads up fast enough for me to be able to start typing as soon as it comes up.

The current text box is just generally annoying in my opinion. I wish they would go back to using the one they had before. It looked much better with the site layout and color scheme.

This should be brought up in the Site Enhancements forum.
