I just made a post in
this thread . However, when I when to view the thread, the words in my post become invisible ink (see 1st screenshot). However, when I went to profile to look at my post, the words were there (see 2nd screenshot). Am I missing something or am I the only one seeing invisible ink?

Hiya,
The issue was that your urls were not formatted correctly ... they were like this
Code: Select all
[url]http://somewhere.com]Some link[/url]
Whereas that first ] should be an = like so
Code: Select all
[url=http://somewhere.com]Some link[/url]
I fixed the post and it shows up now ... I think it confused phpbb

Thanks for fixing the post.
Oops my mistake.
Never knew broken links could have such a weird effect

Couldn't resist saying this:
There's someone who should also thank emmzee
but he probably won't know it.
... and it'll probably take a long post to explain the whole story to him.
The person is the that "happy guest poster". Thanks to your fixing the post in time for him to read that he wouldn't become a "sad guest poster" as he has now finally found his game.

I used to post a bunch of silly stuff with size=0 for a while after realizing it was doable. Seems nobody noticed
