Forums issue.

Does anyone else have problems from time to time posting a reply and getting a message telling you the message is too short to post? How that can be the case when my message has about 40 words in it is beyond me.

Ya I get it, but it's usually when I'm clip and pasting (don't tell SOPA) from some where else.

Probably just one of the lil glitches from time to time in the forums BBcode. Could be a number of things. Can happen sometimes if you quote a post and only use any 4 letter or less characters in a single word reply, like Duh! or Ok, etc. The code doesn't recognize the "quote" as characters so it sees it as too short. Lots of variables. Kinda like fishing! LoL.

But 40 characters in your actual post would most definitely meet any forums character code minimum for sure.

Sometimes changing from the Enhanced Interface wysiwyg back to the Basic Editor will correct an issue.

Yea copy/paste will affect it as well. Sometimes even copy/pasting within this forum will not post properly much less from a web source.
