For some reason, I’ve been having major issues trying to post to the iTunes thread in Cafe Society for about a week now. Anything longer than a sentence hangs up - both at work and at home.

I posted a test post in the thread, and tried to edit it to what I wanted to write. It hung up. I then clicked the report button, to ask a mod to edit my post to what I wanted, and it hung up there as well. Any help? Ideas?

Okay - it wouldn’t post to this thread either. I’m confuzzled.

Edit: wow - and this post posted instantly. Any chance it’s a firewall issue with quotes and such? Let me try without any coding…

Another reason to hate iTunes.

Alright - that was funny.
