How annoying is it when you spend a while typing a great answer and then...?

OMG, I HATE that! It happens far too often. I spend 10 or more minutes sometimes writing my answer, & I might go online to research something for someone, & when I've got it all together, I click "submit" & it says the question has been deleted!" I admit it... I swear/cuss. But mostly I whine, lol. Great question.

Hi,
Very annoyed! Actually I just asked this question as to why those questions are not taken off instantly. Hopefully someone from yahoo may shed some light and I'll forward the answer to you.
Cheers,

Ugh no omg it's sooo annoying cause sometimes I type really long answers and then my wireless internet acts all retarded and it comes back and says, "internet explorer cannot display the webpage" or something like that and I have to type my answer OVER again. Ugh :/
