In light of the lost months of posts and the re-posting of builds for the Build of the Year contest, just a thought...
... i'm a brutally, slow, confused typist and have lost many a long post to my stupidity when working in a reply box. If it's more then 140 characters i usually compose and save posts in something like Notepad then copy and paste them into the reply box once i'm satisfied with what i've assembled. Should i need to retrieve something i've spent a good chunk of time putting together, or post it on multiple sites, i've got on a couple hard drives.
