I'm on the mobile browser (chrome) and when I check in on threads I'm now seeing a hybrid view at the top that tells me who is posting and what order...it's just weird but just wanted to let someone know.

On my phone, I'm having issues reading PMs. When trying to open a PM, I somehow always click higher up on the page (even though this clearly isn't the case). Very weird problem, that I haven't experienced anywhere else.

I have always had the same problem. The mobile site is glitchy on my phone. I've used a Samsung Galaxy 4 in the past. I got a new phone this weekend (galaxy 7) and haven't received a pm so I don't know if my current phone has the sale problem.
Same for me on a HTC/Android phone.
I get that as well on my Galaxy 6. I've found that if I click the arrow on the side of the message it always takes me to the Search function regardless of where in my inbox it goes. However, if I click just above the sender's name it usually opens okay for me.

Gah.. I know this isn't a fix.. but at the bottom of the page you can click a link switch to viewing the full site to get all of the normal options you just have to zoom in and out.

True, and if I can get the "Advanced" button to work I do all most posting in that screen since it seems to work the most consistently, but neither of those is a fix either. :P

So the padding between paragraphs has been rather wonky on my end lately. It was fine back in May. However, I either get no space or too much space when I comment before or after a bit of quoted text. This drives the remaining graphic designer/web developer left in me crazy. I take more time than I probably should to preview my post several times before actually submitting it. Sometimes the issues remain, and I have to keep tinkering with it. Anyone else experience this?

When I got on just now, pages weren't loading correctly unless I refreshed them, background not loading, text not in the right places, etc. Refreshing once fixes the problem. If it does it again, I'll take a screenshot.
ETA: I just went to another website and it did the same thing, so I'm guessing it's a Chrome issue. Disregard.

My avatar is not loading. I am unable to access the menu to edit my avatar or signature within the settings area.
If I go directly to https://www.tarvalon.net/profile.php?do=editavatar then I see it, but if I press save, it says: "No avatar specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator."

Check your email. You should have a confirmation link you need to use. That will open your account back up as it was.
Magic! Thanks.

So... no idea if anyone else has these two problems, but it follows me from computer to computer, so it's not just my computer being weird.
Two things:
1) Formatting is weird when I copy/past things. For example, this is what I get if I try to copy-and-paste a quote from earlier in this thread:
I realize I can quote things and that solves the issue, but sometimes I'm copying things from another thread and I feel like this didn't use to be a thing.
2) The forum likes to add extra line breaks (or delete them). This is especially annoying when I post in the read-a-thon thread and am posting things on a bunch of different lines. It seems like it only happens when I quote things, but, for example:
1) The Spider's War by Daniel Abraham
2) Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians by Brandon Sanderson
3) The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson (Reread)
4) Mort by Terry Pratchett (audiobook)
^ That's a list of books I read from the read-a-thon thread. Now, I try to add something to it:
1) The Spider's War by Daniel Abraham
2) Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians by Brandon Sanderson
3) The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson (Reread)
3.5) fej ihih peage ga
4) Mort by Terry Pratchett (audiobook)
Ahh! Where'd that extra space come from? D: I typed 3.5 so that it looked normal when I was typing it, but when I clicked 'preview', it added another gap before 3.5. Also, in the text editor, I see gaps between each of the lines (as if it's double-spaced), even though it's coming out as single-spaced when I look at the preview, which can lead to weird things like this when I try to delete the spaces and correct the problem:
1) The Spider's War by Daniel Abraham2) Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians by Brandon Sanderson3) The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson (Reread)3.5) fej ihih peage ga4) Mort by Terry Pratchett (audiobook)
These both have been going on for many months (probably at least half a year) and I just keep forgetting to bring them up, but they're super annoying.
And I swear neither of them used to be a thing.
Two things:
1) Formatting is weird when I copy/past things. For example, this is what I get if I try to copy-and-paste a quote from earlier in this thread:
[COLOR=#3E3E3E$4 font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif]I am not sure if this has been addressed before, but on most threads the Top (go to the top of the page) button is not working and I have to scroll (yes, I am lazy). Is there a reason for this??? Because I appreciate the Top button a lot [/COLOR]
[COLOR=#3E3E3E$4 font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif]I don't know if it's because of my browser or computer - I use Google Chrome on Linux [/COLOR]
[COLOR=#3E3E3E$4 font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif] Thanks.[/COLOR]

The copy paste bit is a problem with VB.
All your formatting issues are, actually.

Yeah.. Known issues unfortunately. The only work around is to use the A/A (Source Mode) button then paste.

I have been in and out of the Gardens forum all day with no issues. Just now, I got a "Database Error" message when I tried to check it. Two tries later, it let me in. Not sure if this is a result of moving or not, but as I've never had that message before and things seem to be ok now I thought it might be good to let someone know. I tried getting a screenshot but I'm not quite sure how to do it on my phone (slightly ancient Samsung Galaxy type).

I just tried to post in the discussion forum, but there was no replybutton only a reply with quote button. But as I tried to use that, it showed me that I can't.
