Hi wyndhy... Welcome to Pixies! I've often 'timed out' when crafting my reply to a thread. My solution is to copy what I've written every few minutes and then hit F5 to refresh the page. When it reloads I paste what I've written already and continue on with my reply and if I'm still not done I'll do the copy/refresh/paste again. FYI, what I do is hit 'ctrl-a' (to select all that I've written), the 'ctrl-c' (to copy), F5 (to refresh), and then 'ctrl-v' after clicking in the response box again (tp paste it). Hope this helps...

Oh, and I'm with Lil... love your stories!
