Have you ever just finished typing a thread, then accidently press CTRL backspace or back? I just typed a huge thread, then whoopsies! It's pretty annoying if you ask me.

I'm pretty sure this has happened to most of you, so I'mma ask.

Has this NOT ever happened to anyone?

Nope.

I'd love to see things from your point of view but I can't get my head that far up my bum.

Yeah me too. You can either press ctrl+z or right click and undo to get it back though.

Happens all the time, but I'm working on a custom addon for Firefox that caches textbox data to a set amount of time.

I just now realized I've had a typo in my signature for the past 3 years.

EDIT : just tried it, nope, doesn't work... ctrl+z

@Travis:

Chrome's still being developed, and I'm pretty sure everything's still in the "beta" stage (unless I've missed some news?), so problems are to be expected. Iv'e actually had a LOT of problems with it recently, but the only other browsers I have on my system are FireFox (which facebook Chat HATES) or Internet Explorer. I don't like IE, because it's slow and pretty vulnerable.

I might actually download Opera again. That was a pretty cool browser. It could be my FireFox replacement...

Opera is the best browser, those who cant understand this havnt the mental capacity to embrace the pure epicness of Opera.

I've been using Chrome for over a year now. I just use Firefox when I want to open a file instead of downloading it...

Who needs proof when i can claim useless gibberish!

Oh and opera reads html/css more correctly than IE/FF, IE reads it very wrongly, and i have noticed FF has its own small modifications but Opera reads a browser(for the most part) correctly, you can look into this on w3c i think.

Plus i find Opera to be the lowest CPU using browser out of FF and IE, and also i like being unique, dont like being mainstream .

However im sure in other situations the other browsers are better, i know Opera has its ups and downs with silverlight.

Chrome was a complete rip of Opera 9.0, they were so similar it was unreal lol... and alot of people claim chromes look to be unique but hey, what you gona do. -- but ive never used chrome, just seen screenshots so i wont comment more on it --

Opera reloads the text if u press forward again.
