Yea I can't use the homepage

Yup.  That was a permissions oversight.  Should be fixed now.

umm... we have lost quite a bit of our rpg... Prototype Angels... If you cannot get the rest of it back... then can you at least tell us what happened to it....?

If the RP took place after the first update, it was lost. The fix that was implemented this week wiped out any posts made after the first failed update. The site admins posted warnings that this would happen, and advised folks to back up their posts. We're sorry you lost part of your RP, but we won't be able to recover it.

In my profile, 'About Me' section, a lot of the writing is on strike-through, even though-when I clicked to edit it-the format bar showed that strike-through was not activated.  I tried activating strick-through and then disabling on that unneeded strike-through in my blurb, but the strike-through remained.

Please note the "Tx" button in the editor pane.  This will strip all formatting from the selected text and is the surest way to disable formatting when it needs to be done.  I have taken the liberty of correcting your About Me profile tab for you while testing this.

Thanks a lot, Dio!

I can edit my older gallery uploads just fine, but when I try to edit the details of my newest one, I get this message:

Sorry, there is a problem

This content can no longer be edited. It may have been moved or deleted, or too much time may have passed since it was posted for it to be edited.

Error code: 2S136/E

Another thing: When I edited the details of my old image to test it out, it brought it back to the front of the gallery like I just uploaded it all over again. :-|

Mobile is quite nice, but there are a few problems...

-When autocorrect corrects something like a capitalization error when you are quoting a post, it messes up the location of where the words after the correction are being typed. I have to reposition my text cursor every single time this happens.

-Posts can be edited, but in forum threads it seems that the changes can't be saved. This makes it exceedingly annoying when I see a grammatical error in one of my posts and cannot fix it.

-There was another one, but I forget what it was. Mustn't have been that important anyways xP

My notifications still aren't showing up for certain, seemingly random threads.  My notification settings say I should be getting the notifications, but they still aren't showing up.

 

I am using Chrome, on Windows 8.

I noticed this week that I can't reply to blog posts. There is no Reply or Quote button or text box below. This isn't just when looking at the blogs I've created but other blogs I want to reply to. Technical aspects wise I'm using the Standard theme and am on Google Chrome.

Oh, neither can I.  I thought that was just a feature that came with the update.  

 

Windows, Standard theme, Google Chrome as well~

Yes, it must have happened last week because I saw Rosewind reply to my blog, but I couldn't do so afterwards. 

And yes, I did try clearing my browser cache and history, but it still didn't fix this.

Concerning blogs as well, I don't have the option to create one at all.

The +Create tap at the top of the page doesn't list the option, no tab for Blogs shows up on my profile, and no option appears on the Blog section of the site. I've tried on both Google Chrome and Windows 8, and I'm on the standard theme. I also tried both web browsers on my work laptop with no luck. Both computers are 64-bit.

I do have the option to comment on blogs, if that helps at all.

I call this bug Spoiler tagception and came across it by accident.

Normally one can remove tags in topics such

Quote

as the quotation tags 

These work fine but use the spoiler tags things get messy

Spoiler

Rainbow dash is actually a guy

Looks fine right?

Well for some reason you cant backspace out spoiler tags sometimes and sometimes you wind up with a bunch of nested spoilers

Yeah if you accidentally hit spoiler tags they will nest inside eachother with no hope of erasing the tag.

It may do the same with quotations too

I dont know if its the forum software, my browser (google chrome on Linux) but sometimes it will act funny.

This time seems fine but I had it bug out once and I wanted to artificially create the scenario I was in

Is anyone having problems posting images via Tiny Pic? I noticed, after I post my usual forum graphic link, it just now does this.

I believe the blog permissions have been adjusted, but if they have not, please send me a PM so that I can ensure this is done.

The delete key will likely give you more consistent performance.  Try this before we attempt to apply software-level fixes.

Technically CKEditor should support auto-embed, but it apparently REALLY doesn't like tinypic.  Try imgur first, just posting the raw image URL and see if that works.

In certain status updates, I see this very annoying fish: " :carp:".  It just pops at the end of the status reply, and stays there.  It seems that nobody else can see it on there end, and they certainly didn't put the fish there on purpose.
