[SOLVED] logged out while posting

I was posting a question taking time to get it all right. Then when I submitted i was no longer logged in. I logged in and then something flashed about the post being reviewed. Did I lose it by taking too long?

I don't know but whenever I need time to make a long post I first write the content in a text editor then copy/paste it in LQ when it's ready.

That is good idea, lucky for me it was still there when I used the back button.

It has happened to me before also here at LQ, while looking for a link to add to my post & it may have been a long reply.
Basically I think I took too long to format my reply.
