Not sure what you are talking about is the solution

I try posting in GD and nothing …I post the exact same thing in the same way in latest and bingo ..it posts …however it does show the format codes.

IMO we may be asking a bit too much from ordinary internet denizens. If it ain’t simple we will lose activity. We’re already losing active members.

If there are to be instructions IMO they need to be force fed to all …maybe even a (g0d forbid) popup with the instructions.
