May not be the site, could be update/change to your browser or operating system. Have there been any changes?

Um, that started out with that goofy question mark which is mysteriously popping up all over the place. When I try to post it on purpose, it converts to �. Go figure. �

It meant, of course, maybe FR got attacked by some contagious malware.

I’ve seen a similar phenomenon in some Google results recently. The black question mark diamond. I wonder if it has to do with newer Firefox. I wish the people who saw it could describe their environments.

Just click on preview and make your own corrections. I think it is the auto-correct or the spell-check functions that are compromised.

The server’s phlogiston transmogrifier needs calibration. Or, a good whack with a three pound mechanic’s hammer.

Dont copy and paste items with apostraphes or quote marks until the clutch plate gets replaced.

It has to do with cutting and pasting from other sources in posts. The FR software isn’t rendering some characters correctly.
