Can we turn off auto draft save feature of forums?

There are three big negatives for me in regards to the forum feature that automatically saves your drafts.

1. It slows me down big time when I'm posting from my phone and it occasionally has a weak signal. The whole site will lock up for 10+ seconds while that auto save feature is working.

2. If I start a reply to someone and change my mind (usually because I don't want to get banned for being rude), every time I come to that topic from there on out, I automatically get scrolled down to the bottom of screen instead of the first unread post. It doesn't matter if I go into My Saved Drafts and delete them either, I still get brought to the bottom of the page.

3. Fairly often I make a reply to a comment and then only afterwards do I realize that I had a previously saved draft in my reply above what my current reply was supposed to be.

I will admit these are fairly minor issues, but they have annoyed me frequently enough that I really wish I could turn the auto draft save feature off. I do not think I've ever benefited from the auto draft save feature either.

    I would ask they at least put an option where we can turn it off. Personally I like the draft being on.
