Anyone else have this problem?
Many times when I try to respond to a thread I have difficulty entering words and letters. I have to absolutely pound on my keyboard. I think others might have this problem because I notice random letters or skipped letters in the postings. It is only a problem for me on this board. What is the issue? Is there a techie person who could address this problem or advise the facilitators? Dang it is doing it again!

It might just be page loading times...when I am on the iPad, there are banner ads at the top of the page and that sometimes slows things down a bit which causes the page to "hang" resulting in that typing issue. On my laptop I have adblock, so no lagging.

OMG-this happens to me all the time-If I make a spelling mistake & go back to correct it I will always have to pound on the keys too. It doesn't happen anywhere else just on the Board. Now if I misspell I just go on & then go back when I'm through & correct! LOL Good to know I'm not alone!

I am so glad to know that I am not the only one with this problem!!! I have just about quit posting because of it. I had to go to notepad, type a reply and then paste it. Got to be more aggravating than worthwhile. But knock on wood, it is behaving today. LOL!! Murphy's Law in effect today. LOL!!

This happens to me all the time but only on this site. I do have ad block, so that is not the problem. I am thinking it is some glitch in the auto save feature. It is so annoying that mostly I just won't post unless I really feel the need. Too bad as I do read all the posts and sometimes may have helpful information to add to the mix.
