two problems i encounter often
\[\fbox{1}\] after typing a long solution before submission,the browser just refresh automatically,and i loose all my data,then i have to start over,this might be because of a huge mass of latex usage: -solution could be introducing a new way of saving draft automatically,while one is still typing ,to avoid data loss \[\fbox{2}\] i post a question,then after some time i wanna post it again ,due to dissatisfactory answers or developement,i knw pple who commented will get notified but for a new audience this is a helpful tool,can we have an option of opening a closed question/
Point one I'm not a coder and can't address. But point two I can. The Open/Closed system has been in place a relatively short amount of time - about two years, I think? It was meant to solve the problem of people posting many (i.e., 20 +) questions, usually off a test or assignment, and getting answers to all of them. Closing and re-opening would sort of defeat that purpose. The idea is, focus on one question until it's answered; indicate you consider the answer satisfactory by closing the question, and post another. I think people shouldn't be able to reopen a question - brings back the ugly old days when askers posted twenty questions a pop - but I also don't see why the site couldn't allow two or three questions from each asker to be open at the same time.
Maybe when you reach 33, 66, and 99 you get to have an additional open question.
+1 for your chosen intervals.
It's either that or 49 and 99 or something to that effect. I honestly can't imagine someone really asking more than about 3 questions.
thank you this is very helpful @blues @Kainui
