I too suffer from this, and need it fixed ASAP. Some of the links in my siggy have changed, and unfortunately I'm unable to change it.

Best wishes ( My condolences ) on joining PG...
FYI. I face one more issue:
1.
Affected Users: grondmaster, aspire and probably many other users having the latest post first option in views.
Issue: When Viewing a post via the permalink option, the page in the permalink is correct, but the post is absent. The page number is taken using the first post first view option, and permalink takes you to that page. But for us, the view is upside down, and the relevant post is not seen.
Probable Fix: It would make sense to design the permalink by post number only, not posting page number, which is not fixed for different view options.

Grondmaster

When I click 'Post reply' on any thread, there is a debugging artifact just before the old posts are displayed. This is under the 'Topic Review' section. There is a string aaaaaaaa displayed after the heading, probably left after someone tested the code. | | | | | The Following 3 Users Say Thank You to kaa For This Useful Post: | | | | | |

This primarily seems to be an issue whenever post highlights are listed. So even in a search, where threads are supposed to be listed, there the same issue occurs. Seems the code where the listing algoritm is written, that string of 'a's is inserted. Locating and deleting it is what needs to be done.

Probable Fix: It must be an easy fix in the Shoutbox settings.
| I remember GNRSwa (in his tech days before Bijay came along) saying on SB that it improved SB functionality by 50% by just removing the timestamp...
But these days everyone is finding it difficult... SB is becoming very slow, and shouts take some delay in coming on display after entering....

Affected Users: All
Issue/Enhancement: Some ads, when clicked, go through the admanager and don't go to the linked site directly. For Eg., the SIIB ad... it links to http://www.pagalguy.com/manager/adclick.php?bannerid=181&zoneid=9&source=&dest=htt p%3A%2F%2Fsiib.pagalguy.com instead of http://siib.pagalguy.com
This causes some popup blockers and firewalls to block opening the actual page.
Probable Fix: It must be that the linked banner is going through the admanager instead of bypassing it due to some error in the linking of the actual flash file... the working file must be edited to remove this error.
Regards,
Grondmaster
