If you're copying/pasting from a word processing program, be sure it doesn't contain any control characters.

If you're typing directly into the Message field, then be sure your keyboard is set up correctly. Given the number of messages I post, you'd think that if the problem were with the BoyChat server, that I would have noticed it.

I haven't...

M.
I'm almost certain that the problem is on your end... The only problems I've had is with the Link URL--that DOES screw up the text sometimes. Oh, and on the other boards sometimes "special characters" (emojis, for example) don't render correctly, and you get a glyph "� (REPLACEMENT CHARACTER, U+FFFD) - Replaces an invalid or unrecognizable character. Indicates a Unicode error" (SEE LINK BELOW).

SEE:

(NOTE: I don't put the above in the Link URL because it will probably mangle it.)
