Post Weird smudge
This is not something really wrong with anything, I just want to know what this weird smudge is on one post. I think I'm the only one who can see it, but it shows up on three different browsers, but only on this one post.

Observe:
On Safari, where it really does look like a smudge:

On Opera, where it's one of those "We don't speak Mandarin" boxes:
Image

On Firefox, where it's just a question mark:

Here's the post it's in viewtopic.php?p=1128550#p1128550

This obviously isn't something that's an actual problem, I'm just curious as to whether anyone can figure out what it is, and why only my computer would see it.

There are two in your post... But there appears to be something weird with two of the ] so I retyped them and will see if it's still there.

I see it in your post, Korrgan. Right before 'Nothing'.

I see it in both posts, using the latest firefox.

This is what it pastes into word as:

Probably just a korean character (or wherever he's from).

I think Korrgan just coppasted it into her post.

Either it's a Korean character or it's an alien symbol. :whaa:

Maybe it's like that pi symbol in the movie 'The Net', and if one of us clicks on it we'll inadvertently stumble on secret government information that will result in one of our identities being erased, leading Jeremy Northam to chase them ineptly for a few hours, before ultimately ending it by melting the entire internet with a cool graphical effect using just a simple virus on a floppy disc.

Y'know... maybe.

Just to make sure though, no one here's conveniently a shut-in with no friends whose only living relative is an alzheimers riddled mother are they?

Wait a minute... I'm Sandra Bullock!

:noway:

It all makes so much sense! Does this mean I'm now infected? And erased? That would explain the strange looks I've been getting today.
