Demi is there a reason the url/http:// links are being ate in posts?

[thisismyusername]

 



Try this:

eightch tee tee pee colon slash slash double-you x 3 dawt cee bee cee dawt cee ayy slash beta slash news slash canada slash british dash columbia/vancouver-island-university-fetish-student-professor-fired-1.4400306

The whole link up to where I stop sounding it out eats the post. british-columbia seems to be where it eats until it's good to let you link the rest. Why is that?

I am guessing here, but I think it's some input sanitizer going haywire. It's been an issue for a while now.
I don't remember it ever being this bad; still hopeful that it gets fixed.

If you can't post a url, try an URL shortening service. Sure, it's an extra step, but it's a feasible workaround for now.

I'm subtly bothered by the mix between spelled-out and typed-in slashes and dashes in the URL. Took a few exposures to it before I even noticed, but...

"Canada slash British dash Columbia/Vancouver-" (etc)

This is probably a plot to trigger OCD tendencies in fellow forumites, for whatever nefarious reasons. I'm on to you, thisismyusername.

You guys are overthinking it. Those posts are only visible with Bore Premium. Even to the original poster.

Another URL that Kurt Russell showed me with the same issue

http://business.financialpost.com/transportation/fossil-fuel-vehicles-will-vanish-in-8-years-in-twin-death-spiral-for-big-oil-and-big-autos-says-study-that-shocking-the-industry

Link me to any post/URLs that still show this issue so I can look into it more

Thanks, demi

[Corporal]

Good stuff, Demi. Thanks.

[Raist]

Whenever you isolate what exactly causes the bug, could you apply it to Novid's posts?

Cheers!

[Corporal]

By the way: Out of simple curiosity, what was the cause for the empty posts?

[benjipwns]

It sounded like the word filter had a too ambitious entry that would get overzealous and wipe the post?

[Valkyrie]

The PM email notifications used to be instant, but now they're several hours delayed. Just wondering if I'm the only one with this issue?

[Corporal]

Nobody ever sends me PMs so I wouldn't know. ¯\(ツ)/¯
