Replies with quotes not being quote-able, messages vanishing

I haven’t heard of that one before. You might want to check your computer for malware and maybe re-install Firefox. What version of Firefox are you running, by the way?

One thing you can do is edit your reply in a text editor (notepad or whatever) and then copy and paste it into the reply box when you are done. That way if it screws up, all you need to do is copy and paste it again and you won’t lose anything.

Is anyone else having this problem?

It says it is version 47.0.1, but it just updated itself to tell me that.

The copy to notepad method works, but when reply with quote doesn’t work, it makes the end result of cutting and pasting and linking back to the original post so ugly looking, and the additional steps are a bit tedious. I’d love it if I could just consistently get those quoted replies with the embedded links every time.

It also makes editing posts complicated since you can copy/paste and lose all your formatting in wordpad, and putting the formatting back in makes me miss the edit window sometimes.

I run malwarebytes and spybot, keep them updated and scan with both weekly, and this has been going on for longer than that. Was hoping me talking about it would cause someone else to say “yeah it happens to me too” so we can sort it out.
