Profile Posting Problem

[Tula]

I have a strange problem. I don't seem to be able to post on people's profile. I keep getting this message about the bbc code not being allowed (huh..what code I am not using a code). But I am not putting anything unusual in, just typing. Has anyone else gotten this error code?

I'm not exactly sure, but I'll see if I can help.

Is the message you are receiving more specific than that (can you post it word-for-word?)? For example, I know some of the error messages that can be received are:

1. BB code size is not allowed.
2. BB code font is not allowed.
3. BB code spoiler is not allowed.

Each one stands for a different aspect of the message that VMs do not accept.

Also, is this on absolutely everyone's profile? If you went to my profile right now and tried to post, would it work? When you do go to someone else's profile, is it letting you type in the font that the messages below are in, or is it giving you something else? For example, if you tried to use the font that is in your regular posts, it would not work. If you ever have trouble with strange fonts in visitor messages, click the button on the far left with the two letter "A"s and the X through them which will go back to the default.

Sorry I don't have a direct answer... maybe someone else will!

I sometimes have that error when I am copy/pasting something.

Monkeeci, thank you so much for all of those tips. Cows4you, that is what I was doing to save time. Thank you. Thats so strange especially since it was just a bunch of words, but I guess it doesn't like copy and paste. Man that makes it difficult when you don't want to type things over and over and over. Blaaaaa LOL
