I know how annoying cloudflare is on here, but neither me or Finest can do anything about it as proboards support refuses to turn it down.
To prevent your posts from being lost, you should turn on post drafts in your profile settings which saves your posts as you create them. I don't know how effective it is or if it's saved in your browser cookies or localstorage, and I also don't know the interval.
Also for good measures I would copy the post before posting it.

how about we just don't use boards anymore? i can imagine we could use something like novelmc.net/forum/ or something... we've been using the same forums for 5-6 years and I think it's time for something more modern.

I have drafting enabled. It doesn't work most of the time, so I still lose posts from it.
In my opinion, we should shift to a better forum platform that isn't ProBoards to correct the problems we are facing. Yes, users will complain about it but they'll learn to adapt to the change overtime. ProBoards is also really out of date, easy to break posts with (those div tags), and unsecured.

MyBB is an easy alternative, and can probably be hosted on that new server you got with ease.

I've got 2 solutions for y'all.
1) Post drafts... although pretty bad 2) When you post and the cloudfare thing comes up, just click the back button to go back to the last page and your post will magically still be there.
