When i tried to write a game review, i spent a decent amount of time on it. I clicked submit, but i didn't put a Tagline in. vBulletin threw up a message saying as much, but it threw it up after ditching the last screen, with no option to go back, or to add the tagline after the fact. As a result, the entirety of what i had written for the review was lost, and i didn't wanna type it again (6-7 paragraphs).

One of the things you learn when coding a textbox-input webpage, is how to make a field required. There are usually some simple lines you can add to check for the field, then throw a warning if it's not filled in, before continuing and changing the page. Failing this, at least it should save what was already entered, and bring up the page again, so that you may enter the missing field.

In theory, this can be fixed in very little time (from my old experience). So good luck with this, and hopefully there aren't too many other new features on the site affected by this malady.
