Does anyone else have an issue with posts getting cut off? I know there's a 10,000 character limit, but sometimes I'll have way less than that typed and it'll cut me off!

Yeah I've had that too. Very frustrating.

Do you know if it's some sort of a glitch?

Yeah it must be, because it happens at infrequent times. There really isn't a consistent factor to it. But that's just a guess on my part.

I've had it happen to me probably a half-dozen times or so. It's usually because there's a special character in your text that's throwing everything off. Characters that I've had trouble with are certain quotation marks, the extended dash "--", some single quotation marks, superscript numbers, etc. Even though when you paste from a source these characters will often not appear, I they're still lurking and prepared to mess up your post.

The solution I've found is to see where the break occurs, edit the post, and delete the characters in the vicinity of the break. I then just rinse and repeat until it's good to go.

Hmm I might look into that.
