I construct them in MS Word first, then edit and correct spelling, grammar, etc. Then cut and paste into BFT or another forum group as necessary. The plus side is that MS Word saves the document as you write it and I have not lost one that I can recall. The con side is that it takes a few more keystrokes to cut & paste after your done writing. But I doubt you will ever lose another post because BFT messed up or you inadvertently hit a wrong key. I built this post in Word and then cut and posted it on BFT. Easy, peasy.
Unfortunately, the transfer also carries all of the word formatting shown highlighted above and you will have to select that and delete it before posting. But you won't lose those long postings that frustrate you. If deleting the formatting carried forward is too much of a PITA, you can also write up your post in Word Pad or some other text app that doesn't have all that formatting attached to it, but the edit functions like spell check and grammar are mostly gone.
Tight lines everybody.
