I noticed something. On the sidebar, BBcode is treated normally, so if text size is increased in a post, it blows up the bar and sticks out like a sore thumb. Was this already mentioned?

Now I notice: things look different on an Apple product than a Windows product. (example- global threads have a globe icon on Apple but not on Windows)
Windows doesn't really tell anything. Working just fine here on Firefox 11, Chrome 18, Opera 11.62, and IE9.Quote:

Firstly, load up any page with one of those textbox issues. Then press CTRL-F5 to reload the cache. Does that work?
If that doesn't fix things, you may need to change the Message Editor Interface. To do that, follow this process.
Go to http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/profile.php?do=editoptions
Under Miscellaneous Options, turn Message Editor Interface to Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing. (Standard Editor might work as well, but if you're already on that then switch to Enhanced)
Click on the Save Changes button at the bottom.
Does it work for you now? Let us know.
Those suggestions didn't work in my case, so I switched to Google Chrome and it's working now.
@Archaic I tried your suggestion, but it didn't work. I switched from Windows Explorer to Apple Safari... and it's working XDD I guess I should have to use Safari until things get fixed.
But what on earth happened to Windows Explorer during the update? Why is the text box blocked? -.- Meh, whatever...
I honestly don't know why Internet Explorer is having this weird error. It's not even happening for all users of Internet Explorer. There's a couple of bug reports on the vBulletin forums, but no solutions other than people saying the above worked for some of their users.
I am having no problems with BMGf while using IE.Quote:

What kind of auto-linking are you referring to specifically @Beck?
I'm referring to the linking that's recently been implimented, such as the Pokemon's name auto-linking to the corresponding Bulbapedia article. I think it would be convenient, if possible, to auto-link to important threads or forums by just typing the name of the thread or forum, notably the Bulbagarden Forum Rules or the FAQ Forum. Specifically, if I were to type "rules" or something similar, it is auto-linked to the rules, much like "Blitzle" links to the Bulpabedia article about Blitzle.
It could help users cut corners when sharing important threads, forums, or even posts. Just a thought. Thanks, @Archaic
The Bulbapedia linking should have already been enabled for those forums. It'll only show up in new posts though.
@Archaic
I finally was able to fix the post box problem. I had to install Google Chrome for it to work again.
nice update. i sort of like how pokemon automatically link to the pokemon's page on bulbapedia.
FYI....
It is now possible to turn off the automatic linking to Bulbapedia, if that annoys you. The links will only show for users who want it.
@Archaic, what happened to mentioning? And why do quotes (and did mentions) fail to give me notifications lately? Server issues?
