Unread post JITTERY POSTING PROBLEMS!
When I go into edit mode to make a new post in Game Rebangs, the words in the area you make the new post in keep changing position, for example, if I scroll down the the bottom of the post and try to add a word, the entire post jumps up 4 or 5 lines, making it very difficult to work with. I'm not having this problem anywhere else and so I assume it's a classictw problem.

Can this be fixed?

Only by drinking more will it fix the problem ;)

I too notice this. If I quote a post to reply and I type my post, I notice the window I type my post in scrolls to the top of the quoted text and I have to scroll back down. It *does* get rather annoying.

Yea .... stop with the caffeine....

Or this is a new security feature that makes if difficult for spammers to post in the forums.

Sorry sage...

It does only happen with long posts. I don't believe there is a patch or fix for it. Just have to live with it. At least with it scrolling I can *catch* any spelling mistakes. ;)

Cheers

I have only had that issue with IE8, and when I switch to compatibility view it seems to eliminate the problem.

It's also not just this site. It's on other PHPbb sites as well, but thanks for the possible fix above!
