Have been trying to send a reply to her today, but the forum was acting funny. I knew this was something that had happened before, and there was a bug up. Sry for not reporting about it. Just figured maybe work was being done on the forum and it would eventually send it. Didn't know it was sending her alerts. My apologies. I can try and send it again and screen shot what it gives me, if that will help? Today has just been a crazy day, but I should be around for the rest of the night.

is it anything like this bug?

http://www.mooncalfstudios.com/pathofth ... =4&t=31298

I *think* that sometimes certain emojis in a pm will get it spit back out in the past or if you have anything text that is 'copy/pasted' from elsewhere... if you think anything like that applies? Try removing the suspected bit and resending?

And that makes me wonder if every time I got that above message, someone was getting an alert on grid



eta okay so I just tried to send a pm to Corbin and I got:

"

Aw not 100% sure what one it was. For sure it was one from my phone, and not one of the path emojis. Want to say it's the one that's laughing so hard it has tears. Feel I use way too many emojis! Will have to remember to stick with the path emojis and can't go wrong with those. :D
