49/F/Waterfront,, Washington Join Date: Apr 2009 | Suppose this could be in site support, but I'm in a venting mood
right now. Here is what the posted message looks like:
well, what kind of road was it? City road? Country?
residential area? commercial area? All of that matters.
In our residential neighborhood for instance, it is more understanding if you run across bikers in the middle of the road for instance. It's not as dangerous for them,
and the risk is low for motorists to hit them since they are supposed to be going slow anyways. I know, I know
- 'supposed' to be. Plus, normally bikers in residential
areas are attentive to the sounds of vehicles and 'move to the side' when a vehicle is coming in either direction.
But when I typed it in the 'compose message' screen, I typed from left margin to right margin, with no hard returns - and it looked even. I am getting tired of editing my posts just to make them more symmetrical.

33/F/Albuquerque Area, New Mexico Join Date: Apr 2008 | IM not sure. I copied your post (using the edit option) and put it into Notepad. There are definitely hard returns there. If its not you then, it might be your browser. Like some "wrap to window" option, that forces a hard return in some programs
I really don't know why its happening, though.
and here it is pasted into my response:

Ok, I went through and took out all the "hard returns". even in your statement.
Yes there are some "hard returns" in that post.

Firefox makes IE look like a big pile of poo IMO dunno about anyone else

Pretty well any of the other browsers are more secure than IE. I prefer Chrome.
FB, I've heard about that too.
Hubby wants the new windows, looks like we need new browser also.
