I've had this happen on a few occasions, annoying but not fatal.
Write a post, then decide no, I don't want to post that, use the back arrow or the delete key, go to another part of the forum, go to reply to another, different post and the text previously written and deleted is back? I've even had previously deleted text come back after an overnight log-off? I would have thought that once you exit the message writing area the "draft" post would no longer exist, especially if the post had not been specifically saved as a Draft. I have even experimented with deleting text and then saving it as an empty draft, but the text always returns.
I know it's a minor point, but can a fix be arranged for this? Say along the lines of if you exit the text entry area without saving as a draft then your text is automatically deleted?
