For me that bar has never worked in Chrome, but works in Firefox. Got to be some browser/software incompatibility that may have sneaked in more so with some upgraded versions of browsers, but we're due to give the forum a go over with the duster, so good notes.Remember you can add smilies and such manually. [ the code, such as url ] and ; ) (no gap)
Posting fine here. Could be your browser or connection Tony.
So that'll be your ISP. We're showing nothing on this side, so it's not the site....and the rule is if we have a problem, there's 10 people saying something within a minute. No one else has reported a problem.
If you don't need it, black hole it in the hosts file by adding0.0.0.0 ajax.googleapis.com
I fixed (overrode) the issue by following the advice provided in this link:http://superuser.com/questions/65377/ajax-googleapis-com-stopping-my-firefoxQuoteIf you don't need it, black hole it in the hosts file by adding0.0.0.0 ajax.googleapis.comNow the threads are showing up with quick response times. I'll keep this override in effect until I hear otherwise.
HA! That was me! We had a spammer turn up using imgur to post a thread about Chinese shoes or something, returning two days in a row. Was deleted and banned within minutes, but I did a quick censor on his image url to deter (which worked as he never came back) and I forgot to take it off! Censor was to change imgur to "temp ban" in the thing we use to censor swear words.All good now if you try again!
I'm running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2 on my early 2014, 11-inch Macbook Air and am using Safari version 8.0.4. I am not able to click and select any changes that can be made to text via the icons above the "Reply" text box (not sure if I said that correctly. The icons/smileys above the box I'm typing in right now don't insert or change my text.). I can click on them and see them like normal, but when I click on them, nothing happens. I can insert manually changes to the text (e.g. [.b.] and such). I even get the dropdown to select a different text color, can select a different color, but it has no effect on the actual text color. In addition, I cannot "Insert Quote" from below. I can click on the link(?), but this results in nothing. I'm not sure if this is specific to me. It's also not a terrible inconvenience, so if no one else is having this problem, I'll live. Thanks!EDIT: And I'm not sure how I just managed to cross out everything I just typed...EDIT2: Figured out how I managed to cross out everything I typed lol. Maybe this whole issue is me being an idiot haha.

You can manually do it, but the clicking on icons for things like smilies seems to have become outdated on some browsers.Likely will be fixed the next time we update the forum software.But yeah, manually enter things, such as bold would be[ b] [ /b] - not gaps. Thus bold
