Why are we still having trouble posting messages? Preview, or Post message, just greys out and nothing happens

I can't make paste work either.
My experience seems to be if I write a short sentence it is likely to post. I tried to post on Galen's US election thread - failed failed failed, until I did a very brief post, that was successful.
It's very tedious!

Select all/Copy/Delete/Paste,

Really Gransnet, it's a wonder anyone is still posting - it's such PAIN.

Please sort it out ASAP

I'm having the same problem, mainly when using my Samson tablet.

Problems for me again this morning, is it you or us?

This is driving me mad! I don't post often, but three times posts have not gone!
now using laptop, not as convenient as i Pad.

Please sort it. Thanks

I'm having the same issues I've been having for a while when on the Kindle. I press post, the screen greys out as if it's frozen, I panic that I've lost the post, but if I leave GN and come back in the post is there. I use the desktop site even when on my Kindle, if that's significant (I just prefer the layout). # stickinthemud

I'm still finding hardly any messages post

I have this problem. I copy what I have written then start again and paste. It always works second time. I thought it was just my ancient iPad playing up! confused

What's just happened to the twenty questions thread??? Why has it been closed???

My problem is that I keep forgetting that the posting thingy is not working and I keep finding interesting threads, I say my piece with great enthusiasm then the penny drops when I click on post message and my post fades to oblivion yet AGAIN.
IT IS INFURIATING!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for your patience. flowers We think we've finally managed to get to the bottom of it. Can you let us know on this thread (or via contactus) if it happens again (it shouldn't). But if it does please can you give us as much info as you can (what browser you are on, if you're on your phone/tablet etc). Though hopefully you won't need to...

Whew! Massive relief. Thanks Gransnet. Normal service has been resumed. ?

During this saga I've been lucky not to have been one of those with posting problems.
However ! Over the last week I have had trouble when clicking on a thread title on the active page of being thrown off site rather than going to the chosen page angry I get straight back in the door but it's frustrating.
It happens on my android phone and my Kindle.

Just started posting again and seems fine now. Thanks gransnet.

Thank you Gransnet for sorting the problem. We take you for granted when all works well, but when a problem occurs, we let you have it both barrels. ???
