Are you only having problems posting in this section?

Are you trying to edit a post? Or, are you trying to post a reply? Because you seem to be able to post replies because you've made a few of those already, and at least once since reporting this.

That doesn't make any sense :/ Maybe it was your internet browser acting up. I just tried posting in your thread and went through okay. Have you tried again?

Where did you create the text? Did you write it in MS Word or something and copy it in? You may have some illegal characters or something weird like that. If you wrote the post in Word, copy it into Notepad or someplace else first to make sure you get rid of any bad characters. This may be the cause of your problem.

Can you edit your post? Also have you tried restarting your internet all together.

Sometimes its just the server being funny.

I tried posting half the story, then went back and tried to edit it, that didn't work. After that, I tried to put it at the end of my 2nd post, which also didn't work.

Try posting it here so that we can see if the same problem occurs and what is in the content of the post.

Odds are, there is something wrong with the text. I don't know what else to tell to do. Generally, Notepad will remove the problem characters. There could be some other settings issues. These problems are usually caused by punctuation. For example, double quotes that are actually angled in MS Word or characters with accents that are encoded wrong. If you copy and paste the text into the box to try to post, then maybe re-do any punctuation that isn't a comma or period:

-
"
'
&

Stuff like that.

Not the size of the post, like I said it'll let me post everything except for almost the very end. I tried adjusting the font size, and still didn't work.
