Doesn't help while using mobile phones for posting though.
Auto-Draft Suggestion.

Who the heck uses advanced posting unless you're setting up a selling thread? Also relying on your browser isn't the best idea in the world to say the least.
I'd have to agree with this as well. I only use advanced if setting up a thread. Also, a lot of people have browsers set up for auto clearing of cookies, such as public computers in a library or at a school. Having an auto draft setting will save information within the site rather than worrying about other factors.
If we can get a statistic on how many members actually use Sythe on their phones to reply to threads and browse the forums maybe? If the number is high this would be a great idea though their are really no negatives I can think of...
That would be good. The only way would be to make a poll though? Not sure if there is any difference with IP adress from a cell phone. I'd be willing to bet that the percentage is 70%+

While I like the idea coming from a server perspective would this not put much more load on Sythe's servers? I like the idea but maybe just a prompt that makes it so you can't close the tab accidentally and lose your post?
Doesn't help if you lose connection though, such as on a mobile device.

Would be handy, but I normally just blame myself whenever this happens.
No support.

So you do not want to support it because you'd rather blame yourself? I'm curious on what downside you see of supporting it.

It's not like it's a vital function.
I don't really care for this to be implemented, if you really want to save the text that's in there, use the advanced editor and let chrome save your ass.
I'd rather not go through that trouble as many others wouldnt either if the site could do it for us.

I'm not sure what all is needed to implement this. Maybe the forum host offers something that could be used as a plugin for the forums?

Suggest just typing your thread out in notepad or similar before posting if you have network issues.
Wow..... Suggestions like theese are cute.
Do you want sythe to write your thread for you?
How about if sythe sells you gold for you?
What about wiping your arse?
OT: As sythe said use notepad. Or don't close the screen when typing lol.

Way to suck up to Sythe, your the first person that was rude at all on this thread. Taking your words into little account.
@Sythe, can this suggestion be a possibility though? There are quite a lot of people that have one problem or another that this would be extremely useful for, I can't think of a single negative to implementing it.

You realize the draft function exists in applications for a reason right? Think emails. Because if your browser fucks up, you accidentally back with a button on your gaming mouse etc, you lose everything you've written.
Bump.
