This site has ads? News to me. I guess the ad blocker I installed to make the “Washington Post” readable works better than I could have expected!
Also, I can’t recall seeing any postings that had more than a couple of small glitches. I know that of those with glitcehs, some are mine.

If it’s not too difficult to implement and Chris has got the time, I’d support the request to enable accented characters, so people’s names such as N?stor S?nchez can be correctly displayed. Thanks.

Using special characters will work now for user display names (not your login username, for which you should avoid special characters), topic titles, and posts. Unfortunately, it is not retroactive, so older posts won’t suddenly display correctly, but new posts should work fine now. Let me know if there are still any issues.
I don’t take offense when suggestions for improvements to how the forum works are made. In fact, I have a decent-sized list of things I’d like to do but just haven’t gotten around to yet.
