Suddenly unable to "quote" other posts
Is anyone else getting this? When I try to quote someone's post, add my own comments, and hit the submit button, my post won't send and I get this error message:
The BBCode syntax in the message is incorrect. Spoiler tags may not contain quote or code tags.
Just started happening. Have I done something wrong? How can I fix it?

And I said "dangerous" and here you are.
You. It's always you. John Watson, you keep me right.

Re: Suddenly unable to "quote" other posts
I had the same problem yesterday, too. It was a double quote and only worked after I erased the "inner" quote.

Yes, I have the same problem when I try to quote double quotes.

Re: Suddenly unable to "quote" other posts
Now that you are mentioning it, I have the same problem.
Just wrote a message to the helpdesk.

Re: Suddenly unable to "quote" other posts
That error message makes it sound like you're quoting inside spoiler tags - is that the case?

Re: Suddenly unable to "quote" other posts
The same thing happened to me a few times I responded to someone´s quote.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Re: Suddenly unable to "quote" other posts
I have the same when I want to do double quote - I try to send anything and I see a warning that something with quotes is wrong, but when I check everything is fine.

Glad to know it's not just me and my computer. Susi will get to the bottom of this, I'm sure. Yay for the moderators!

Me, but only with some quotes.
I wanted to quote gently on the fanfic rec thread and couldn't, but it would have been possible to quote Wholocked on the same thread.
