Could we have a way to save a question or answer?

Question

We all have our issues with the Internet - and we all make mistakes. There have been a few times where I have accedently backed out of a page, or when the browser crashes while typing a looooong Q/A. So I suggest this: we get a way to save our half-done Q/As to the site. So if we have an Internet issue, and we have a save button clicked, we can hopefully restore most of the info.

Yeah, that incident and a couple of other times was actually what inspirated me to write this XD Still, I do recall something similar... ish.

Well, if you use Google Chrome it basically never crashes, and if you accidentally back out of a page while answering, you can just go forward to it and your answer is still there. However, I would still like to be able to save answers to questions on the site (especially the RMT), that would be awesome. Not sure how much strain it would put on the site though if everyone had half-done answers saved on questions... maybe they could delete themselves after a couple of days? Anyway, I like this, +1.

I am for this idea, and this could turn out to be useful!

But I remember someone responding to the same request as this saying that if you want to save a question, just enter information in the answer, and submit it, hide it, and edit it. Unhide it when you are finished.

Answer 1

Yeah, thanks, but, I wanted to physically save stuff to the site. It would be an awesome addition.
