Please enter something before you submit your post.

This is after I have already typed a sometimes lengthy reply and hit submit. It's very frustrating.

I had the same thing happen a couple of times.  I just went back and re-typed my post and then it went thru.   Have no idea why this happened --- maybe a little ghost in the system?

We need to gather some information to help the tech guys find the problem.  If you can provide any information for the following, it will be a great help.
  • Where exactly you are trying to post, with URL of the thread you are trying to reply.
  • What browser you have, using what plugins. 
  • How often you see the issue
  • If the page is fully loaded (including the editor) when it happens,  Screenshots are helpful here.
  • Where you are replying.  Quoting, quick reply, etc?  I see from the reports that preview/full page editor is working, but I need to know where it is not.
  • Which editor are you using?  (HTML or BB Code - if you don't  know, it is probably the HTML editor)

I've moved your posts to the existing thread for you, so we can keep them together & continue to track the issue to get it resolved.

This happened to me a few times last week too. It happened weather I click on reply, or quote.  I ended up having to click on preview, then it would submit.  ??
