The Sandbox

So you can’t even blame autocorrect. :slightly_smiling_face:

If you spot it’s happened again you can always go back in and edit it to see if that’ll stick? You should have a 24 hour window to make any changes. :+1:

I have a suspicion it may be when i actually go back and edit (as in here) as i`m typing, such as adding a word i missed, before i actually post.

No, it was that!

Ah, well there you go. :slightly_smiling_face: The Preview pane is a really useful tool as well, so you can spot any obvious formatting errors before you publish. And on the PC version the Preview pane is right next to the reply window (which was incredibly useful when doing the Womanizer chart :slightly_smiling_face:) :+1:

That`s the thing, it looks fine in the preview, then goes astray when posted! Oh well, as long as people can read my shite!

Just a little test on the apostrophe formatting thing as I don’t think it’s spaces that are the problem, I think for some reason @WillC is using a backwards apostrophe…

This is with a normal apostrophe…
It’s time for Ian’s nap

This is with backward apostrophe…
Its time for Ians nap

@Ian_Chimp upon looking at the preview it seems to be this :+1:t2:. Try using the other apostrophe Will, see if it works?

I’ll look into it!

P.S. this was typed on my phone with no problems!

Yep, I’m using my phone, automatically it will use the normal apostophe but if you click on the second page of symbols the backwards apostrophe normally reserved in formatting for opening quotes is an option that you can use. I think for some reason on your laptop you’re using that one by default.

Probably because i don’t know where the correct one is on my laptop! I’m old! :wink:

@Peitho Believe it or not…it’s only in the last few years i found out how to copy and paste!

Here’s one…a box is coming up saying i have used my quota of likes for the day, and to try again in 6 hours, but it seems the likes are applying to the posts i assign them to!

@WillC I just had a little message pop up saying that I only had a few likes left of my daily allowance. I didn’t think I’d used that many…you get 50 a day I think.

It shows up, but it doesn’t stick. I’ve run out of Likes a few times, even though I’ve not used 50 a day. I think there’s a spam-style limiter on it so new people don’t go nuts. :slightly_smiling_face:

Brenna upped it to 100/day yesterday, but it affects the associated Badges (Out of Love goes from ‘Use 50 a day’ to ‘Use 100 a day’). Swopping it back this morning may have sent the counters squiffy.

Yes @Ian_Chimp i try to be positive, but i doubt i used 100 likes or even 50 a day!

I’ll meet you there! :slightly_smiling_face:


To embed a link use the :link: in your reply format bar (in the section to the right of Quote/Bold/Italic).

You can paste your link in the URL box, and then type the text you want to display instead in the bottom box. :+1:

You can also start typing the title/keyword of a Topic in the URL box and it’ll suggest Topics you can tap on to auto-fill (including the display text). If you open it up and start typing ‘Sandbox’ you should see what I mean. :+1:

Thank you - I’ll give it a go.
I just have and it comes up with forum suggestions, not a link to the actual item.

Oh! I think I did it!?

@Ian_Chimp do you know how to find the old DOTD / toys on offer threads?
I’ve just ordered today’s glass dildo, but I can’t tell from the pics whether or not it has a pink tinge running through it - I’m hoping so but don’t know where to ask and don’t want to start a new thread (or, is it ‘topic’ now?).
