EVER LOST A “COMPLETE WRITE UP” BEFORE ??? 😡😡😡
Arrrrrggggghhhhhhh! Oh my God! I can’t believe what just happened right now. Did i just lose a write up I spent over an hour racking my brain to write just like that, and that too in a blink of an eye. Honestly, i can’t believe this, i know the level of energy and effort it took me to get all that written, especially with the whole crazy day i had yesterday. I was this close to missing today again because of how mentally exhausted I was from today’s stress, but after thinking it through, i decided to give writing a shot, and to my greatest surprise everything was going fine, until a couple of minutes ago. I had drafted over a seven hundred and twenty two words on the hive learners edition one prompt for this week. The only thing left were the “thanks for reading part”, addition of images, tags, topics and then publish…

Just because of a single mistake i lost a complete write up I worked so hard to put together. Honestly, I didn’t see this happening, if only I knew this would happen, I would have saved my draft every 5 minutes to avoid a story that touches the heart like this. This is not the first time I’ve experienced something like this, neither is this the second time. I have been a victim of this countless times, and whenever something like this happens, i get completely upset and disorganized. When it happened in the past, I would leave writing till after 5-7 hours before jumping on that prompt again, while getting something else done within those hours of break, and most of the time it’s movies I run to…
I wouldn’t be in this position if i was drafting my post on the peakd frontend. This has never happened to me on the peakd frontend, but here on the ecency frontend, it has happened countless times and I’m seriously getting tired of it. Peakd automatically saves every single word of mine without me having to click on save draft every minute of the hour, but with ecency it’s just too different. I almost smashed my phone in anger after i lost my beautiful write up. Like, how did that even happen, it happened so fast, I can’t even say this was how it happened, but then all i can say is that i am so so pissed right now…
An eleventh hour entry just went down the drain like that. I know how hard and long it took me to put those words together in the first place, now losing it all to a silly mistake like not saving draft is the most annoying part of it all. I just want to keep ranting on and on until i’m better. That’s just what i feel like doing now. I would have smashed this phone mine if i had my way…
What happened about 15 minutes ago just completely threw me off, I won’t deny that. Only those who have been a victim would understand how I’m feeling right now. It would have been better if I had just gone to bed without writing today again, but because I didn’t want to give in to laziness and then decided to rack my brain to put something down, i had to lose it later on to a silly mistake…

Gawd! I am done with this, I can’t go further. I might smashed this phone if i keep recollecting what happened a couple of minutes ago. I need to retire from hive for the night. Honestly, i am still in shock and i am also very frustrated right now. I should be better by tomorrow. Now, I’m having more reasons to give up on the ecency frontend. Goodnight guys…

THANKS FOR READING…
Hi
Sorry this has happened to you! On Ecency.com, drafts are automatically saved remotely so you never loose access to your drafts (there is no need to save manually), if you lost content, perhaps something else happened during auto saving process. Could you tell us, where you using classic editor or new editor? Where you using Ecency mobile app or Ecency.com from your mobile device?
Thanks for the feedback, i think it was more of a personal error than it was with the frontend. I was just so frustrated at the moment it happened that i couldn’t think well…
Thanks for taking the time to stop by…
We want to minimize issues and frustration if there is anything you feel need improvements, please do let us know. We will make sure to improve it.
Okay, and yes, what’s this new update on the ecency web. Before we don’t need to get permission from our hivekeychain before performing anything, but now, everything we want to do, be it comment, post or anything needs to be approved on hivekeychain app first?
Why that. It was much better before this update.
On mobile browser? That was bug which we fixed earlier today.
Yez.
I'm so sorry and I understand why you were so frustrated. The only time I have ever lost a draft while using Ecency was when I accidentally hit the CLEAR ALL button. For me, it was definitely user error, not an Ecency issue.
I guess it was a user error also. I will try to be careful next time. Thanks for taking the time to comment on my post Melinda mam…
This was definitely painful, and I don't think anyone would want to experience such. Sorry about that. I guess it was best you just took a rest because honestly, thinking straight won't be possible to say you could bring up another write up.
Hello @quduus1 sorry about this. This can be so painful. You’d be torn between giving up or starting all over again.
It’s such a terrible feeling, sorry bro.
