Hmm, why images instead of letting the browser figure it out?

Any pages like that are just out of synch and can be reported to staff/mods to be fixed. I found that specific thread and it should be fixed now.

Browsers on desktops can't figure them out, as they aren't standard. This is a community project that converts the input to image variations. It's the best approach at the moment.

It's actually been sitting idle and ready for testing. Real life has been kicking my arse lately, so we will have live testing start soon and make changes/fixes based on your input before we open it up to the masses.

Sorry to be a pest but any movement on "multiple deletions" from the subscribed threads forum. So we don't have to go back to the top of page 1 after every single deletion?

ETA: And a big thank you for all that you have/are doing.

If you saw some of the bandwidth stats based on the limits we have now, you may cry to think about upping it to 4/5mb. Also consider that we then have to push much larger files to everyone who views threads, eating up their data plans as well.

On the list, near the top actually. I would guess it makes into the next update, or the one after!

did you fix the ability to click on the green arrow and it takes you back to the first new post on a thread instead of to the first page ?

Try using an "alternate" flesh tone? Those sometimes render as two glyphs.

I tried a random bunch from my Samsung Galaxy S9 and none of them work. It just tells me no text when I hit submit. If I add text to the post, it will post but it deletes the emoji from it. These are standard with the phone. I just got it and have not installed anything custom or anything:

Did anything get done in this last update to cause the following: After selecting an animated emoji from the emoji tab/screen, the emoji window does NOT close and return to the posting window. I have to physically click off of the emoji window to get back to the posting window.

It used to return to the posting window automatically.

On mobile...
The threat is real...

@GoatBoy

Got an issue with this happening when trying to click on links to member profiles:

The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

I just get a blank white page with that on it. Getting to be frustrating and I don't know if it's me or the site. Seemed to start up a few days ago and hasn't stopped. Never experienced this before.
Why do I even bother.

Where are you clicking the links? Do you have a sample link where it's sending you and where you are clicking in from? (Forum post, IM tool, search results, etc. Anything that you can give me would help!)

Also, as an FYI, a site update should go into effect this week with a few changes and updates mentioned here and elsewhere.

For a while none of the blue Mod icons for the forums were working but I just checked and now they're all fine, only thing that's still not working that I can see is the "IM Striker" link under the CoC and the profile link for him I can get through Google, this one - https://www.ar15.com/member/member.html?id=135.

Can't get any other links directly to member profiles to pop up in Google so I've been unable to test anyone else.
Why do I even bother.
