    Preview post/Edit glitchiness

    Several times now, when I go in to edit a recent post or when I hit preview post, the proper window will load only to erase what I have typed, forcing me to paste in what was there previously from the post or from the preview text. This is super annoying, and because I use a kindle fire more than half the time (which is a piece of total garbage, btw) it drives me neurotic. (figuratively speaking)

    I've never had that happen, though I've never used a kindle fire either. Do you think it's a site issue or the kindle?

    Yea I've never had it happen to me on cell phone or pc or laptop for that matter. It may just be something to do with the browser and the kindle fire. Can you try a different browser?

    I've had this problem with IE10 on my laptop. Firefox on my computer doesn't do it. I don't even try to use BP.net with my Kindle. It's just a PITA in every way.

    I would bet its a kindle thing. I have IE10 on my laptop, my android cell and android tablet that have never had that problem.
    I do know the screen on the galaxy tablet is sensitive and you can do a lot of things you really don't want to do quickly LOL

    I'm not sure. I forgot to mention in the original post, but it was also happening on my computer. (Opera browser)

    It used to happen to me all of the time using IE10, but I switched to Chrome a few months back and haven't had the problem since.
