Can I lock down YouTube pages while writing my comments?

Question

For the last 4 months or so I've been experiencing an annoying problem with YouTube comments. I'll be in the middle of writing a comment and without warning the whole page will change to another video and I lose my comment. This is SO freaking annoying!  Is there some way I can lock down the page so I can finish my comment? Is there some setting I'm not aware that's causing this to happen? I realize YouTube comments went through a major change recently but this was happening before then. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

1) Do you have any Youtube-related addons on your browsers that may perform this?
2) Are you watching a playlist video and forgot to pause said video?
3) Are you accidentally clicking a link while typing (common for touchpad laptops)?

sometimes when the video is complete it will change to next video in such case it will reload a  whole new page..
else after the video is finished it will change the option from information to sharing in this case too the page will reload which means the comments also gets removed..
try pausing the video and complete your comment.. else best is type a line and press ctrl A(select all) ctrl C(copy all).. by doing this even if page reloads you can simply paste your comment rather then typing whole thing..

I can post comments without any bother at all but you must be pressing buttons or something on your laptop thats doing this.Does it ever happen if you go on to any other websites?If so you should try and uninstall your internet web...example would be Google chrome and try installing it again.to do so go into controll panel and try that and if it still doesnt work try a differant website like mozilla firefox or something like that...
