    Hallo Help Desk,
    I'm just wondering have I been given an infraction I'm unaware of? I'm trying to post a reply in the Animals and Pets forum, and every time I do, I'm given the error message 503 Service Unavailable. I have no idea what this means, and am not aware of having antagonised anyone anywhere, and have no notification of any infraction, so just wondering if someone could please help me out as to what this is about?
    Many thanks.

    Ok, sorry for bothering you, please ignore. Turns out it was all to do with a format problem in a post I was trying to quote, apologies for wasting your time!

    That doesn't sound right, 503 is a server side error. I'll move this to the proper place for site errors.

    Indeed, it doesn't sound right. Might be some BBcode in the post you're trying to quote that's causing our parser to fail.

    I am curious, can you provide a link to the specific post that you were trying to quote? Thanks.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
