• The forum editor can't handle certain characters.

In particular, I've noticed that the degree symbol (°) and letters with diacritics (Ü, é, Ñ, etc.) will cause the editor to spaz out and load up blank when you try to edit a post containing any of those characters; there may be others. This makes things [i]really[/i] annoying at times, because for some reason quoting the posts works fine and you end up having to reply to your own post and take everything in the quotes into the edit window yourself. And if you had any quotes [i]in[/i] the post, you gotta go pull those from [i]their[/i] respective posts and insert them manually. It's incredibly frustrating. This forum uses vBulletin 4, yes?
It's not just those letters, it does it for me most of the time with normal text. If I click edit it comes up blank, and if I click preview before submitting a thread, it will show me the preview but the text box will be blank.
there also are other bugs with the forums, such as this: [quote][table="width: 1, class: outer_border, align: center"] [tr] [td]‏[/td] [table="width: 1"] [tr] [td] [td]‏[/td] [/tr] [/table][/td] [td][/td] [/tr] [/table][/quote][/quote] [QUOTE=Irkalla;41549672]I used those all the time back when I used to post news articles. I think they make for pretty presentations of news. Garey why?[/QUOTE]

Damn, now I really want to know what he did.
According to the people of this thread he ripped a hole in the space-punch-time matrix
There's a table tag you can post that will break the formatting, basically.
[QUOTE=Raptortheawesome;41540698]Damn, now I really want to know what he did.[/QUOTE] Probably what's being done in all of GDi

[QUOTE=Raptortheawesome;41540698]Damn, now I really want to know what he did.[/QUOTE] A table bug that fucked up the layout of all the posts below it. Garry decided to fix the bug by simply removing table tags all together since people never used it for it's original purpose other than alignments. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/44jwjtj.png[/IMG]

But, "If they want to make webpages they should make a webpage", christ, formatting a webpage with tables :v:
wait fuck no more pretty trading tables

-Snip- Didn't mean to click reply, sorry guys
Looks like Garry really turned the tables on this forum Can we just get some proper code for aligning things instead

Sub and sup was removed too.
[QUOTE=Bo98;41550527]Sub and sup was removed too.[/QUOTE] In visitor messages none of bbcode tags work so it's a bug/glitch i think. (Also in other subforums other tags like B or even IMG don't work.)

[QUOTE=Bo98;41550777]I was talking globally.

Maybe I should've kept my trap shut...
He also erased GDi from existence, so I guess today must be the radical solutions day
