Strange auto-correction of words in post

    Firefox, but also appears to be happening on chrome.
    No firewall.
    Posted this post on this thread

    When i posted it it read like this
    Ah here look.There's utter rubbish and there's pure fantasy, and you just crossed the line buddy!

    but as soon as it was posted it literally changed in front of my eyes to this
    Ah here look.There'ster rubbish and there's pure fantasy, and you just crossed the line buddy!

    Change highlighted in bold. Is this a glitch with the swear filter, or something else? I went to edit the post, when I look at it in the edit window it's exactly as I typed it (correctly), whenI click Save edit, it reverts to the auto-corrected version... have never seen this happen before.

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.
