Topic: 8 image max + Netscape is shit = Whatever.

I spend about an hour and a half arranging a story with images here, more Sim-Stupidity, post it, it gives me a message that '8 images are the max per post', tells me to click my back button, and viola! Every fucking letter I typed has been deleted. I'm told it has something to do with using Netassfuck instead of Internet Explorer or something. Whatever. Anyway, just wanted to say "Hi. I just got fucked over." May future generations learn from this lesson, because I'm too spiteful right now to learn from it myself.

This has happened to me.

I was not pleased.

I now use IE to visit the boards.

I stopped using Netscape after they released version 6. My college roommate decided to try it out (he's a real MS buff and wanted to see what the competition was). Not only did it suck royally, but he had to reformat afterwards because it auto-destructed the operating system. (Of course, he was planning to reformat soon anyway, so all his files were backed up and waiting, no loss.)

Netscape 6.1 is more compliant with current W3C standards than IE 6

The problem was not Netscape, the problem was you have your browser set to check the page every time you go to the instead of never check or check once. This will cause a refresh of every page, losing any form data if you go back. This setting is available in Netscape and IE.

Its not just netscape, I've had IE (6) eat my posts when I hit the back button too.

Was going to say the same thing. You beat me to it.

Netscape 6.1 is a very stable browser, NS 6.0 was not. Either way, just use a nightly build of Mozilla, because it r0x0rz both.

Okay, IIRC, you can hold down the Ctrl key when you hit the back button and it shouldn't reload the page like Kanid said. I ran a little test and it seemed to work.

While this may seem wholly unrelated to the post I'm responding to, it actually is very much related, and even those who don't understand how can at least be enlightened by the following: Penny-Arcade is a funny, funny comic.
