    I got it once while having my wife look for some info on my phone while driving to a basketball game. She was less than enthused when she thought I was telling her to go to a porn site for me.

    It's hilarious that LA Ute wants it crystal clear he has never visited a porn site, even involuntarily because of a moose bug.
    One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

    The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.

    I'm mainly feeling kind of left out.

    It's never happened on any of my devices, but I just tried it on my wife's iPad (no Adblock) and I have now found some new adult friends.

    Is anyone else having trouble accessing the site from their phone (tapatalk)? For me the site is constantly updating but never finishes. It could be my connection, but I thought I'd inquire.

    Page loads on UB5 on my iPhone lately are usually very slow and sometimes fail, although I am not using tapatalk. It doesn't seem to happen on other sites, nor when I'm on UB5 on other devices. In fact, trying to reply to this message was impossible on the iPhone, so I had to come do it on my work computer.

    I figure it is God telling me to get my nose out of my phone and get busy doing something productive.

    I am having the same problem.

    Just man up at log on to the site at work.

    So U-Ute, the no space issue happened to me, I'm on a mac. I've got a console up so I can watch stuff as it loads. So if it happens to me again I'll see if I can track down the error, but I guessing it might be a js issue when it loads the wyswig editor. If I went and began typing behind the un-spaced stuff I could type again with spaces (which might be a workaround for you other non-spacing fellow schlubs).

    It appears to be happening when you quote a post too.

    I'll let you know what I find.

    I agree that there seems to be a problem in the JS code in the wysiwg editor. I've had issues for a long time when replying to a post where the cursor jumps around. I don't have any problems if I hit the "Advanced" button and finish my posting there. So I usually type a couple characters, hit that button, and finish it in the Advanced dialog editor.

    Also, I've only had this issue in FireFox. When I use Chrome, I don't have problems.

    Hit the "Go Advanced" button in the lower right and use that editor. Does it behave better?

    I did some digging on the spacebar issue. It appears to be a known issue with vBulletin 4 and newer browsers. Apparently one workaround is to not use the WYSIWIG editor.

    There is no development work on vB4 now, as it is not the current product. The only work being done is php compatibility, any security issues that come up, and a handful of very minor bug fixes. Development work is focused on vB5.

    Replacing the version of CKEditor in vB4 would be a major undertaking, requiring months of developer and QA time. I'm afraid that is not likely to happen.

    Probably the best bet for any users affected is to get them to switch to the text-only editor ('source mode) instead of the WYSIWYG. They can do this in their user settings.

    If you want to upgrade to v5 I'd be willing to put some cash into that.

    This is like a sitcom episode. I can almost hear you explaining, "it's not usually a porn site! I go there for the articles!"

    Every time I come here, it makes me re-login no matter if I have "remember me" checked or not. Any suggestions?

    On my work computer, it always shows me as not logged in when I first pull up the site (username and password fields appear as empty). But then I click on New Posts or Activity Stream, and it shows me as logged in. Weird, but not too annoying.

    Yeah. This seems like a weird vBulletin quirk since I experience the same thing at multiple sites. Even when do log in, it doesn't show me as logged in. But like chrisenrut says, navigating away from the home page will show that you're actually logged in.

    I've noticed that if I go to 'utahby5.com' instead of 'www.utahby5.com', it makes me re-log in.

    It is something I want to look into. I think it has to do with the cookie paths.

    Thanks for the info.

    So, I took your advice and just went straight to the forum. I was then marked as logged in. Thanks.

    It's been a crazy busy day without the possibility of being online at all for anything, let alone this board. Then I come to discover I've been censured ... or warned, or whatever ... Interesting.
