How many people Ctrl+C their posts before they hit submit these days?

What with all this server busy crap, whenever I'm posting more than a couple of sentences I copy the whole thing in case I lose it. Am I the only one doing this?

if i have something i really want to put out there and it says "server busy" i just keep refreshing the page until it lets me post.
if i'm sick of always getting the SB message, i go do something else online.

yeah when i hit refresh it would usually say something like "you did not specify a thread" and then my post would be gone. So ctrl + c it is. at least there's some sense of accomplishment when you finally get through.

Usually that works, but lately I've been getting errors where it doesn't. So yeah, I CTRL-C before I post.
