ARG!!! Just about every time I try to spend a PM, after spending 10-30 minutes typing it, I press submit and get an error message from GDNet stating:
I'm sorry, you may only use this form to send one message. Please click the "Compose New Message" link again to continue.
It wouldn't be so bad, except that once I've gotten this message, the contents of my message are gone permanently and backing up doesn't brink back the text =-( I'm NOT trying to send two PMs using the same form, so I'm not sure why this message comes up, but it really is infuriating to spend 30 minutes typing a 'post' only to have it eating and gone forever. I'm reminding of the server errors that occured randomly when posting for a time and the memory is not a good one =-( EDIT: Oh, the injustice. As I post this I get http response code 500 and a double post to go with it.

Yeah, I've hit this a couple of times too. For anything but the shortest PM, I've taken to copying the contents of the edit box to the clipboard before I send.

It happens if you open a new window in IE even if you use the original window to send the message.

Thats a pretty big bug, because I always use control-n+_ to open dictionary.com/google/etc to check what I'm typing.
