Any plans to fix the error when uploading sigs?

I'm using Google Chrome and am occasionally getting this error when loading RealGM's front page (a refresh or two generally fixes this problem):

Really getting sick of the back button not working once to click into a thread and want to get out.

Also getting really annoyed with the want to be virus that only comes up on your site. It tells you your comp has a virus than in the same window shows a fake windows screen downloading it or something. The virus has done nothing since I just exit out of it and windows one care takes care of it. All in all its just annoying as hell and really this site hasn't run clean for me in over six months.

Atleast you guys cleaned up the page not loading correctly

I don't know if this is a forum bug or an Android 2.1 bug but I thought I'd throw it out there. I can't post replies on my Droid phone. It won't let me choose the reply button - just skips right over it. I can navigate all over the site but just can't reply.

Is anyone else having a problem where once you hit a certain amount of text, characters or space in the post reply window, it's starts jumping around like crazy while you're typing and you can't see the text you're entering without stopping and scrolling down?

Absolutely. Came here just for that. I usually run Firefox, but it happens on IE as well. It's got to be the most annoying thing about this site. Hopefully someone see's this, investigates.

This a very minor problem but none the less annoying. When i view the sites front page on my smart phone (android) it brings up the mobile optimized version (which is expected). But when I disable the web enabled option on my phone's browser it still shows up. Once my phone switches the user agent it should show me the homepage without the wap subdomain.

I've tried to replicate this, but I haven't been able to.

What browser are you using, and how much text do you need to enter, could you cut and paste the amount of text into a post for me to try with?

I feel that the use of an adblocker could cause the spacing of the divs or cells or w/e RealGM uses to become glitchy depending on the browser
