Just about every time when I try to edit my post, I get the following response when I click the "Save" button (and my POST data is lost):
I imagine that this is a byproduct of all of the recent forum work. Please fix!![]()

While editing, the forum gets mad and shows the above screen when I try and type the word
tracer†
![]()
A. Proof that the forum didn't always have this problem:
http://forums.ddo.com/showpost.php?p...81&postcount=2
B. Had to find that post via Google, as the forum's own search pukes if you give it tracert (without breaking it up with text formatting codes).
C. And following the link from the Google search loaded the Google search string into a cookie used by the forum, so the entire forum stopped working for me as every page puked on loading cookies.
How to reproduce this error (I don't recommend you do this BTW; note that I had to manually delete the Cookie to restore forum access from that web browser.):
1. Go to http://www.google.com/
2. Search for site:ddo.com tracert
3. Follow any link to the DDO forum. You should see that single page fine.
4. Try to go to any other page on the DDO forum. They all just say errors like5. Delete this Cookie to re-enable access to the DDO Forums:501 Method Not Implemented
GET to /showthread.php not supported.

Note the tracert at the end, from the referral string you had when you followed a link from the Google search for that word.
To delete this Cookie in Firefox, press the Back button to get to the page that did load correctly on the forum, left-click on the DDO icon just to the left of the page URL and click More Information, then Security tab->View Cookies. Find the "forums.ddo.com" / "__utmz" Cookie and delete it.
Bug reported.
