Here are the general approaches you can take:

Hi @glaeken2,
Sorry to hear you're running into issues. I wanted to clarify the difference between writemostly and write-behind, as they're often confused:

Hello @licandro, welcome to the forum.
@hatemyway has mentioned at least 2 issues. I believe they were addressed earlier in the thread.
Do you have a question, or are you just cheering @hatemyway up in that he is not alone in his way...
