Different dates. If she had posted the second one right after the previous, then they would have been merged. Am I right, Gergel?

My posts don't merge on Minecraft section by choice.

Pretty much. To clarify, it's not just about different dates but the interval between posts. Consecutive posts by the same user will be merged if the interval between them is less than 1 day (24 hours).

So, to sum it all up, it's Dunny's fault

Changing the size of text works fine, unless there is an empty space between text, so only the first paragraph gets adjusted to the size. Example. If you quote the post, you will see what I mean.

Not a bug, just a suggestion:

Ever since you switched to phpbb forum software there is an addon that allows to get rid of all attempts to sign up using spam forum email registrations called stop forum spam.

Although they don't actually manage to post on the forum they do sign up and take database space.

I am aware it barely takes space but it will make the forum sign in slower as time goes by and more such spammers sign up. I use this addon on my forums, very easy to install if you have 3.1.x version.

We are getting hardly any spammer signups these days. The last one was from a few months back, I think, at which point Shevron and I tightened security a bit more and haven't seen one since.

We actually are using a rather simple combination of a few blocked spammy email domains and custom WoW-themed challenge/response security questions. For example "Name a playable race in WoW", which is pretty much impossible for a bot but should be utterly trivial for someone who wants to sign up on the forum of a WoW guild.

Also, we are using 3.0, not 3.1.

Clicking the little arrow of Last Post on the main page takes you to the last page (or top of the page if there's only one) of a thread rather than the last post, while the Last Post arrow on separate threads take you to the last post as intended.
