Would you like to see a "Draft" option -- a feature that would virtually eliminate the frustration of losing a post?[ 3 votes ]
1.	Yes, I know what it's like to spend 20 minutes on a post and accidentally lose it.	3 / 100%
2.	Maybe... tell me more.	0 / 0%
3.	Nope -- there are bigger fish to fry.	0 / 0%

Count me in on this, too...

... Only because as a self-confessed "message board junkie" do I go through the hassle of opening "Stickies" (on the Mac, it's cool software that's like PostIt(R) Notes) to first draft my message... then once it's ready to "Post" -- I'll copy and paste the content to FUDForum...

... And though I never wager, I'd bet hockey tickets 99.9% of message board participants don't do this AND 100% scream when they accidentally lose their post.

(Sorry Ilia, I didn't see a listing of hobbies in your FUDforum profile -- and I think you're in Canada so I mentioned "hockey" to build rapport Very Happy

)

Maybe Ilia just needs more "convincing" how awesome this feature would be (and help rocket FUDForum to the top of the hill of forum software -- although we all know it's already tops with us).

By the way, it doesn't have to be complicated (although autosave -- similar to what is currently offered in gMail is pretty nifty)...

... Just a clone of the "Draft" option found in FUDforum "Private Messaging."

In fact maybe saving the post as a browser cookie is all you need.

I actually have this on my programmer's "must do" list (but it requires messin' with core code... something we really try to avoid).

I'd be willing to share the cost of this development... count me in for $25.00 -- I'll PayPal it to anyone within 60 seconds of being notified of a solution. And consider my $25.00 a donation so the code can be donated to Ilia for inclusion in the next upgrade.

In addition to sharing the cost, I'd be willing to "blueprint" the script ("blueprinting" is a word we use to display a mock up of HTML).

Ilia, if we can have this developed (and of course approved by you), is that cool?
Even better, can a bunch of us donate $25.00 to you and have you create the script?
Is anyone else in for $25.00 to make this happen?
