Ethel Duath Half-elven Jan 31, 11:34pm Views: 988 Help, help, O Great and Powerful Admins! Most of my post in the RR appears with strike-throughs! No idea why. I copied and pasted it from the word processor on my desktop, and nothing there has strike-throughs. Is it fixable? Am I hasty http://newboards.theonering.net/...post=1000883#1000883

Ethel Duath Half-elven Jan 31, 11:36pm Views: 961 P. S. It looked fine when I pasted it in. The lines didn't appear until it was posted.

Starling Half-elven Feb 1, 1:06am Views: 962 Is it bird strike? From a murmuration maybe...

dernwyn Forum Admin / Moderator Feb 1, 1:43am Views: 964 Oh my! LOL, you're not going to believe this... The culprit was this line: "Lothlorian does seem to be the catalyst for setting the course{strike]..." Notice that strange {strike] in there? Actually the { is a [ but if I used the [ you would not see that word, just the strikethrough. I've sent it into the outer darkness, never to sully your post again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I desired dragons with a profound desire"

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 1:49am Views: 959 A Shrike strike? As part of their labor protests, they are randomly shrike-ing through peoples texts, posts, and emails! Maybe we should meet their demands?

Starling Half-elven Feb 1, 1:52am Views: 957 I would They might do anything next!

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 1:53am Views: 957 Thank you! And how very odd. I'm on Firefox, using Advanced Editor. I didn't think those little coding things worked in that setup. Hmmm. Thanks so much for the rescue!

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 2:05am Views: 957 Reminds me of the time I texted my brother when I drove into my driveway and found the entire yard full of Grackles. I said "My yard is full of tiny dinosaurs." They say birds are the direct descendants thereof, so if we don't want them to devolve back into scary, long-legged raptors, we'd better negotiate quickly!

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 2:10am Views: 956 Still some strike-throughs at the end. Is it for a different reason? I can't see any brackets around there, unless it's the parentheses.

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 2:14am Views: 955 Oh, sorry, and could you change "Lothlorian" to Lothlorien? (Maybe an inhabitant would be called a "Lothlorian," like "Canadian"!?

dernwyn Forum Admin / Moderator Feb 1, 2:18am Views: 958 Hwaet! As the Professor might say. There's a murder of shrikes - er, strikes at the very bottom! Begone, foul dwimmorstrikes! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I desired dragons with a profound desire"

dernwyn Forum Admin / Moderator Feb 1, 2:20am Views: 955 Hm, I thought that looked a bit strange. Lothlorien, 'tis! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I desired dragons with a profound desire"

dernwyn Forum Admin / Moderator Feb 1, 2:21am Views: 954 Ooh, I must remember that! "My yard is full of tiny dinosaurs." That's for the next time that flock of turkeys descends upon our feeders... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I desired dragons with a profound desire"

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 2:31am Views: 948 Bon merci! //

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 2:32am Views: 952 And leave the boards in peace! Thank you, once again!

Ethel Duath Half-elven Feb 1, 2:34am Views: 951 Moderately small dinosaurs! Wattle they say to that!?

dernwyn Forum Admin / Moderator Feb 1, 2:37am Views: 951 That they're displayin' around? (Not original, I think that's from Yellow Submarine) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I desired dragons with a profound desire"
