I've lurked here for over a year, and I've even posted once in a while. Now, posting of other boards is a straight-forward, painless procedure. Not so at TDWTF. It is so ironic that a board only dealing with the worst fuck-ups in software development has the most fucked up software of all time that it must be bloody intentional. So I thought we could band together and enumerate our peeves, grieviences and hates. I expect it to be quite some list...
I'll start:
* It can't evaluate quote blocks correctly! I press the quote button on a post, append my additions and click post, and what happens? "Something didn't quite match up", "Invalid quote blocks in post". WFT!
* Moving the cursor with the arrows is a random affair. You never know where it will go or what parts lines the cursor refuse to go through. WFT!
* The "Post"-button in fact STARTS A NEW THREAD. Unlike every other board software in existance. WTF!I've never figured out what causes people to have problems with the forum software. We used to blame it on the Preview functionality, but since it has been removed, we see just as much mangling as before.
I've never had it happen to me, but I've also never done one thing: looked at the HTML. Let me see if I switch to the HTML view in FreeTextBox it will mangle my post.
Now I'm editing my post directly in the HTML. Perhaps that makes a difference.Still in Firefox.

In Firefox, switching Design -> Html multiple times.

Ok, now I'm using Firefox. Just switching to HTML view, and then posting.

Well that didn't do it. I switched to HTML, and hit the post button. Also, just for completeness in the testing info, I am using IE(although I usually use Firefox when coming here).
Now I'm going to switch back and forth between design view and HTML view multiple times. Visual Studio 2003 likes to mangle my code then, so maybe it's the same with FTB.
