I kinda hate this software

[DISTORT6]

I think that you must return to the problem and solve the problem with the software, and not scold each other!

Hmmm. Suspicious bot like reply again…

Does it mean I’m getting older when I remember things not working, but don’t remember which one of these many screens I was looking at when it happened?

Maybe it happened on all of them. Yes, that’s my story.

I certainly hope so cos the alternative is pretty dire.....

Whoa, I forgot about this thread.

Lately (just the past year or so) my new thing to ignore is how I can’t turn italics off if I turn them on in the middle of a post.

So I just don’t use italics anymore.

That particular one is endemic to a lot of sites, the Discourse forums suffer the same glitches and its ferking annoying as hell.

I've learned to apply them afterwards, not during. Much like I've learned not to mention any criticisms during sex. Seems you can't undo either during.

Never saw this thread, but it did start prior to this newer version of the forum if I recall correctly, so the original problem might be fixed on your end.

For the persistent quotes/replies stuff, I delete what is in the edit window AND I use the drop down left of the "Preview" button in the upper right corner of the edit window and choose "Delete Draft". When I return to that thread, it no longer has the stuff I had been typing previously.

As for italics, it turns on/off fine for me using the menu, but you can also use Ctrl + I on windows (I think Cmd +I is apple equivalent) to turn italics on and off, so that may work for you.

I have to echo what @11top said earlier in this thread, MORE EMOJI'S!

The italics is a royal pita on a phone.
I must try Ctrl+I on PC next time though, thanks for the tip.

I don't like how it still strips emojis from text. how am I supposed to post aubergine-sweat when I see a particularly nice guitar?

You shoulda seen the look at the peoples faces at work when I told them I had a stripper clip in my pocket.

"How do you clip strippers?" They ask, hee hee.
