Never ending puzzle piece loop at sign on
Now- not only can I not sign in to the boards- but I can't even sign in to eBay? I enter my username and password and I'm taken to the puzzle piece. I move the piece and it says "verification succeeded", then the page refreshes to start the verificat...
Photo attachments are now appearing as links
Photos USED to appear in the body of a message as an image that could not be enlarged when the attachment feature was used. This is causing a lot of issues with being able to help OP's since we of course do not want to download their pictures to view...
I am unable to respond to a post or even send a respectful private message to a poster here?
It says I must fix my bad html in post but there is no html at all in my post. I wonder if I’m being censored or something. I’ve spent 1/2 hour on this.

Two threads on this board in one day. Before the Private Message feature received a botched facelift, when we opened a message to read it, it would automatically be marked as read. We could change that status back and forth if we so chose, but the ac...
