I guess everyone?
Except I prefer e-mail and reply (almost) only using e-mail.

For Firefox anyway there was an Add on that would memorise the form fields you
entered, and can fill them back after you used the history back, closed the page
- or simply want to retype the same thing...

I think you might need a spell-checker too!


The only message system that works poorly is the one accessed through the storefront.
Use the old message system for better results. You can get there by clicking
on the little envelope on anyone's feedback card.

Good luck!

I agree there could be a more advanced forum system i have been on several really
good ones and bad ones but this one is not bad and still can navigate pretty
well.

Personally I have come to appreciate the simplicity of BrickLink compared to
other websites that are cluttered with so many features that I never use.

Not sure which browser or operating system you are using, but for me, if I click
the back arrow in my browser and then the forward arrow, the draft is still there.

One thing that would be nice is a mobile version or app. Sometimes, I need to
check stuff from my phone, but navigating the BrickLink website on a smartphone
is quite tedious.
