Why when I type a private message does my space bar not work? It works on 4 other forums I participate in, it works fine here in the forums, and it works fine everywhere else I go. This just started today, never had a problem with it before. I restarted the PC twice but the problem remains. It's troublesome because I get usually 2 to 4 PMs a day.

I'm on a different computer and still no spaces allowed in my private message replies. Does anyone check here for technical problems?

Problem is on you end, I'm not having any issues and no one else has reported this problem... Have you rebooted your pc?

You need to have a more aggressive approach.
Try this, works everytime in the Charter Member section.

No one has reported it, please, if members experience a problem please let us know. If only one reports issue then chances are it is on their end, if multiple people report same issue then chances are it is on our end....

I will report it to admins..

I have been drinking excessively over the last few days, but I'm pretty sure it really happened T_H. I should have reported it, but I used my back arrow when I saw everything had run together, then hit my space bar between words and it worked - so as you said before, I thought it was a problem on my end. :skullflag:

However, once I hit the enter key then it lets me use the spacebar. This is the only place I have a problem.

Yes, if you hit enter and drop to a new line, the space bar suddenly works.

There is no possible way this is a problem on my end as I said, it only happens here and on more than one computer. The PC I'm using now was bought less than 24 hours ago and it does it on this too.

Interesting! In the past week to 10 days I occasionally lose the space bar on this and one other website when I sign in from my work PC. Not every time but only those two sites. Never a problem with my home PC. Both wireless keyboards. Curiouser and curiouser.

I start typing it all runs together. I hit "Enter" and then start typing and the problem is gone.
