Steemitzens!  I want to save you the [infuriating disaster](https://steemit.com/writing/@arbitrarykitten/i-am-so-mad) I had the other day when I worked for hours on a post with over 2000 words, hit publish, only to find my work gone.

<p><div class="pull-left"> https://steemitimages.com/DQmNujBPQpoBB2HRK5zoSKvVqxoaj6AJ3WEwZiLSAfM3Zrf/image.png</div> Poof.

Grrrs and growling and much swearing ensued.

In the last week there have been reports of comments and posts disappearing after pressing the Post button.

Before you hit Post, *always* copy and paste your article to Notepad or Word.  Then check your page to ensure it’s been published.  You may have to wait a few seconds and hit refresh.

Rest assured ~ Steemit is working on the issue :)

Save yourself the headache! Always copy your work elsewhere before publishing!

Be safe and have a prosperous and abundantly happy week!
