If You're Experiencing Trouble With Posting TD Arguments..

I know a lot of people have been frustrated with posting arguments lately..

Here is the solution..
(just a helpful thing for people to read, to anyone that accepts this, I will expect you to accept/offer a draw)

When using Mozilla Firefox the character count is incorrect. Internet Explorer has the correct count.
Firefox counts paragraph breaks, or returns, as fewer characters than IE. Firefox's counter will let you get to the supposed 1200, but then when you submit it won't post because you are actually over the limit.

Don't believe me?

A good thing to do regardless is to copy/paste your argument before you hit submit, just in case it doesn't work, you won't have lost something you spent time writing.
Anyways, take your argument copied from Firefox and open up your TD in Internet Explorer. Paste your supposed 1200 characters there, and it will tell you that you've exceeded the amount.

Solution?

**If you want to keep using Firefox just provide yourself a buffer of 10-15 characters, and don't max-out the characters.

**Always copy/paste your argument before clicking "Submit", just in case.

**Start using Explorer to post your TDs

Hope this helped. =)
