Feature Suggestion: Auto save drafts?

1. Feature Suggestion: Auto save drafts?

   #1

   Given the sites propensity to occasionally eat posts/subs (not to mention computer/internet issues) I was wondering if it would be possible to add a auto save draft type of feature to the site, similar to the auto save feature Gmail uses when writing an email. (it auto saves every time you stop writing for more than a few seconds.)
   
   Even just a manual "save as draft" button that auto saves the work and pm's it to you or save it in a note file of your profile would be helpful.
   
   While not a big deal for short posts like this, when composing a meaningful post for a pbp RP, or working on a sub, it is invaluable. (most people write subs up in google docs these days for safety, but doing that for forum rp posts and such is kind of pain in the ass)
   
   Anyway, it's just a feature I'd enjoy seeing and would save a lot of frustration by many people that play (or GM) in the pbp rp's here.

   It is doable and on the list. The problem, as always, is time.
   
   Moving to New Jersey at the end of July so most of my free time is taken with last minute details and any traveling I can get in before I depart. I have a feeling, come this fall, I will restart the next version of the Citadel again!!

   Moving is always a pain, at least you have military support to help handle the relocation and absorb a lot of financial burden, I'll give this thread another poke around Step to remind you.  :wink:
