I've noticed a trend on the site. It seems when I write a particularly long post, when I go to post it, I get redirected to the homepage and am signed out. And my post has been deleted ><... Is there some way this can be fixed?????

You've timed out.  Select your entire post and Copy it to the Clipboard before clicking Post, just to be safe.

Alternatively, you could open a word processing program and write your post using that. Then you can copy/paste into the text field on the posting screen. Even if it does boot you to the home page, you'll have your post safe and sound. Plus you gain the convenience of a Spellcheck.

Right, this has been an issue with StoryCrafter since day one. If a page is open too long, you get redirected and lose your post. So always do one of the two above suggestions.
