I tried to reply to a post twice today and within like 10min it vanishes without a trace?

It could be that each time you edit and click on "post", it counts it as a new message, and there could be some time of spam filter at work that suspects that if you post more than 5 posts in 5 minutes (or some other predefined post count or timeframe), you might be posting advertising. That's just speculation, of course.
That could be it I did edit the post a couple times...will have to do a better job of proof reading I guess

I've had it happen a few times as well. From what I could tell, after I typed a message, it would just never show up.

I've had that happen to me once or twice before, but the last time was months ago. The posts eventually reappeared. I think maybe it was held for review because something triggered a spam filter, though I don't know what specific words would have caused it. Could be just a glitch too.
