I Have a Suggestion for Similar Worlds

Wow - ok - this is now twice in a row my text has been deleted... First I was typing and it just decided to reload the page all of a sudden - after I had written about 3 pages of text. No worries, it's not like I edit and put a lot of effort in while I type and create my writings. (Cough - sarcasm)
Then I type up an explanation of my disappointment, then I get told that I must choose a subject for my writing to appear beneath. So I choose "I have a suggestion for similar worlds" and guess what? It erases it again!

The title thing is messed up - it should not make it reload or go under specific titles...

From my experience a reload only happens after an update. I'll ask the admins if that can be avoided.

You should be able to select a group without refreshing though. If you type a few keywords and pick a group from the suggestions, your text will be kept. Only clicking Browse Groups will bring you to another page. I'll ask if they can add a warning for that like when clicking other links.

Posting stories without selecting a group is unlikely to happen because the groups are what makes them easy to find for people with similar interests.

Just to note:
- When we do an update, the full reload only happens when the user clicks on a link to change the page. (I don't think this is the problem in this case)
- When you begin a post, there is a warning that prevents you to lose all your changes if you click on a link. I tested and it works on iPhone.
- Unfortunately, though, Safari seems to ignore that warning if you press Reload on the browser. It works well on other browsers.
