Thanks, but @Azdeus deserves credit too. I just found a way to reliably reproduce the issue based on a hint from his working posts and some of his comments.

The forum software is now completely fubar on Safari (most recent IOS version from a couple of weeks ago, Australian English). You can't post, rate (like, thanks etc.) or perform several of the moderator functions

Works fine on iOS 15.7, at least, as evidenced by reactions and quote above. Have nothing newer to check.

Hi everybody, still here This is a test with Firefox private windows, cookie accepted. Now i try a new line...

Test new line here.

I have to thank @majestic for the clue about in private browsing, that it works (Firefox and Edge), as we see in the previous post. Now i try we regular NON private windows...
Edit: no, it still doesn't work. For the moment, I keep stuck with private window workaround

seriously wtf is going on with the forum :((((

Fun an quick way to get the forum to display the "Request Blocked" error:

At any point in your post, begin a new line, and put some text in parantheses, like so:

"(THIS WILL CAUSE THE FORUM TO ASSUME DIRECT CONTROL)"

Just without the quotes.

->

@SChin -> tagging you in again. Some other combinations may cause this too, but this is a really simple way, at least on the latest Firefox.

Edit: Does the same on Edge, so it is not a browser problem.

Edge private, chrome incognito does nothing

[marelooke]

Can't post from Firefox at all, and forum eats every paragraph other than the first when using Chrome.

Thanks @majestic I was going crazy with a very long post!

Too many bugs!

I'm experiencing this also with double curly brakets and sentence inside double quotes. Not always though, if the sentence is short, double quotes seems to work... very weird.

[majestic]

There (maybe is) another (issue) with more than one ("parantheses") per line.

Edit: Odd, it's hard to reproduce any of the weirder behaviours. Single line within () works well enough, but everything else is behaving weirdly. {{}}

Uuh...

Doing anything that annoys the backend in an edit gives back the usual response when you're trying to edit a post that is in a locked thread or has been removed. The server replies with a 403 Forbidden for some reason. I'd laugh, but it makes posting really annoying.

is it maybe also the end)

(or only the beginning without one?
