Land crabs. Land crab, land crabs, land crabs…
Land crabs. Land crabs.
Some more land crabs.
Land crabs. Land crabs. Land crabs, you say?
Land crabs.
Land crabs.
Huh. That’s weird.
Hey, guys! Could someone do me a favor and quote my OP? My posts have been looking weird lately when people quote them.
Looks pretty crabby to me.
How do these look? They look ok to me.
Thanks!
They look OK on this end, too.
The problem I’ve been having is with a bunch of lines of whitespace appearing between paragraphs when my posts are quoted. Any idea what the problem might be? I don’t recall it happening before, and I’m not noticing other people having the issue. Although the latter could be due to my non-existent observation skills.
Hey, could you try quoting the following two paragraphs too?
Land crabs. Crabs, crabs, crabs. Get your crabs here! More crabs. Getting a bit bored with these crabs now… Is this where you they sell land crabs? Apparently, the proper term is “terrestrial crabs”… A crab once pinched my sister… no, realli! It was a lånd cråb… I think my favorite kind of crab is the Swedish cöcönut crab.
Crab, crabs, lovely crabs. Wonderful crabs. Crabs, spam, spam and crab. Just making these two paragraphs longer than in the earlier posts to see if it makes a difference… Crabs, crabs, crabs. Are we at the end of the line yet? There we go. Crabs.
Sky crabs.
Mrs. Arlsburgerhhh?
Mrs. Johannesburrrr?
Flowers.
Plumber, ma’am.
Candygram.
LAND SHARK!
Of course, now the problem is stubbornly refusing to make an appearance, and everything is looking hunky-dory.
Oh well.
Do you have any examples from past posts that show the problem?
Let’s see if I can find one where the content makes me sound intelligent… oh, who am I kidding, anyway. Let’s just do this one:
Do you guys see a bunch of whitespace in the quoted version?
Yes.
Well the quoter can manually add spaces in between the lines as I just did. But that’s not really a thing and I know even sven doesn’t have a habit of doing that.
Yeah, it’s not just even sven.
Another example, different poster quoting.
So I figured that I should at least start from the assumption that I’m the one doing something wonky.
I wonder if it has to do with different font sizes causing an additional carriage return.
I can’t resist (Jim Ignatowski would approve)…
Crabs, glorious crabs,
Hot sausage and mustard.
Lunch – something we grabs,
Not solely for rustlers…

So Bill goes over to see his best friend Ted. Ted is not home but Ted’s wife allows Bill to come in and wait for him. Bill can’t stand it any longer and offers Ted’s wife 100 bucks for a peek at her right boob. She thinks and concents. Impressed, Bill offers her another 100 bucks to see the other one. She again thinks and concents. Bill gives her another 100 bucks. Bill can wait no longer and leaves thanking her.
Ted comes home and his wife tells him that Bill was just there but couldn’t wait any longer. Ted asks her, “Did he leave the 200 bucks he owes me?”[/spoiler]
