Odd bug since upgrade

    Hey,

    Have noticed this happening recently. When a piece of text is quoted, vbulletin seems to capitalise the first letter of each word. It also seems to be entirely random as to which quotes it chooses to capitalise.

    Example
    Original Text

    Quoted and capitalised text

    As I said, it seems to be completely random but has been happening quite a bit lately. I'll link other examples as I find them because I can't recall specific others off the top of my head.

    It looks like the scream filter that was introduced with the upgrade to 3.6 kicking in. Basically if you post all in capitals it will just capitalise the first letter. Odd thing is that the op wasn't "screaming".

    As it did with my reply above which should have been GTFO. but was turned into Gtfo.

    Could be related to that alright.

    Quoted

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
