dragontology Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Tried CTRL+F5 after copying the post, didn't help. Sometimes I can comment, sometimes not. Seems like once it's decided my comment is blank, no amount of content can convince it I'm not. Being somewhat technical (enough to build a computer, I guess the rest is subjective), I'm thinking, maybe it's just a generic error? Profanity filter would be my first guess, but I don't use profanity here. Still, perhaps there may be a word in dispute, i.e. one that I didn't know was blocked, though, on a site that is opposed to profanity, I even avoid 'light' swearing. Those words little kids say are bad words and you say, "That's not a bad word... oh wait, yeah, go on thinking that, that's cute." But again, I avoid that set of words as well on sites such as this.

theyarecomingforyou Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I've found that certain special characters, like '?', cause that problem. For some reason they work on the forum but not on the frontpage. The only 'solution' is to reload the page and avoid using those characters.

etacarinae Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 This is still broken. Why can't we use em dashes? Why doesn't the site give us a prompt stating "you cannot use this character, please remove it" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
