As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Quotes are all funky

Post by Elkins45 »

I’ve noriced this since the forum started and assumed it would eventually go away as forum setting s were tweaked, but it hasn’t. Notice how many posts have quotes that don’t appear as quotes, or that have nested quotes that appear as if they were new text. It makes some posts really hard to read, especially if you are working your way backwards from a recent post. Is there any way to make this better?

I think part of the problem is that one end of the quote tag is either getting deleted or not generated to begin with.

I rarely have this happen when I am on desktop. Unfortunately, I think to be cognizant as to where the end quote tag eliminates the problem. Apart from that, there really isn't anything I can do. :(
