I think it's because MMTM has shortened his location, and nothing I did. I may look at shortening display when I get home - had hoped the button I'd pressed would have worked. Looks like it just affects what you input.

Mannersmakeththeman's location is no longer stretching out threads for me, but tigerlily0's location still is.
Thanks, Raps!!

Try it now - I should have altered it to a multiple (wraparound type) profile field if I read it correctly.

tigerlily0's location, too, seems to be a bit of a problem for my CS reading pleasure.

I get this too now and than, actually. It's usually specific threads and seems to be triggered after replies as I've read threads which were fine but than stretched out so you need to scroll horizontally when I came back to them later on.
Which leads me to believe its something with the poster's ( Maybe something with the user names, sigs, status, etc? ). But I can't think of a thread off the top of my head where I saw it happen last. But I'll keep an eye out for it now.
I just have vanilla Firefox running on XP S2 though.

I've checked and I can set a user input level - probably won't influence an existing item. It's defaulted to about 100, though, which suggests it may not be the issue in question.
Must check tomorrow and see what I can find out.

Maybe we need to set a character limit? After all, that space isn't really designed to hold a novel.

Could be. Becks made that suggestion about someone else way back.

Possibly due to the lengthy 'location' of Mannersmakeththeman?

It's still happening, but now I mostly notice it in threads where smileyeagle1021 posts. Maybe it's his location?

I thought that, too...Quoth friendofjimmyk View PostWhen I see this, I always think that someone is hiding text - you know, when posters will say highlight next section to see whatever it is they are talking about ...when you run your mouse over the "blank" section - text appears.
But it wasn't.
I haven't had the problem for a while, but then I haven't been online in a week. Mad love to PSE&G but undying despisement of AT&T and Verizon.

So, I see this in all the posts and I think there's something secret there.

It's workin just fine for me here. Run the latest Firefox at home, no addons and windows vista. Run IE7 on an XP machine at work. Never had a problem like that.
