Forum bug report : Cannot include a specific mutual fund symbol V I G R X
Still occurring. For example, if I try to edit my post above. The following is what happens on screen when I try to post or save after editing if it has that mutual fund symbol in it.
@vkt Yup. Note: I'm using Chrome for the internet browser with everything cleared from the browser history, etc. This pc also returns the same status as you see whether trying to post or "save draft" for any form of the ticker symbol.
Generally, technical questions are monitored; although I can not write as to how often (within the week is my best guess).
However, click upon the "flag" word just to the right of date/time. This will bring up an internal message format. You may type whatever your question or concern may be for any thread or a portion of a thread. I will state that @Chip or @Accipiter will be able to take action with this concern and/or offer an explanation. I have tagged both of their names here with the "at" symbol which should generate an internal message to the them, too. Tis a most unusual "thing".
I believe that it's another example of the built-in censorship of the Plain Vanilla platform that MFO uses. Same thing happened to me a while ago when I tried to post something with the word "p o k e r" in it. Chip said that it's the nature of the beast- MFO can't really change that behavior. Probably something to do with that medical aid that Ted uses.

Thanks OJ. ... This reminds me of when I tried to use "naked state" in an Amazon review in explaining that I don't like to read with covers on my iPad or Kindle. Kept getting nasty responses from their computer that vulgarity wasn't allowed in reviews.

What is the procedure to report bugs on this site for corrective action? Do admins monitor this category or should I e-mail or post a form somewhere?

I'm curious, too.
