I don't think that is a web site problem as much as how your preference are set on your end.....I posted a fix on this a year or two back....I think it will solve your issues....let me look for that and get back at you


here is a fix from a while back..........Try this.......

FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS:

Here is a Fix for the typing issue, This was forwarded to me from Cat401, Thanks

Go to:"settings" at the top of the screen, right.
click on: "general settings"
scroll down almost to the bottom to: "Miscellaneous Options/Message Editor Interface"
the user probably has : "enhanced interface selected"....this is what causes the issue"

click the box: "standard editor"

Seems to work now. But I'm guessing that's cause the A/A button is automatically "pressed" now. Still shouldn't have to do this. Just fix the damn site as promised.

Thanks for the "fix" tho. Appreciate that.

I would assume this hasn't/won't happen(ed)? There sure haven't been any repairs/fixes/updates, as it's still a complete pain in the ass to post from a PC.

Another promised update that we won't be getting?
You honestly thought the site would get fixed? That was last year's moto.

Ron bought a house, his focus had to change. It's being worked on as we speak there are some incompatibility issues with current hacks and new software we are trying to work out. I also went back to work and don't have time to play with it anymore

I'm not sure how legal this would be for part of my idea.
A technical documents section? scanned manuals , Procedures etc something like that kept on a site that has been around this long would be pretty valuable to the community.

A good example is how Grizzhoppers site is now gone , He had Soooo many procedures for mods to Grizzlys on there from all years, it was 1 man running it he had heath issues and now Good luck finding any info on any of those documented mods for grizzlies they are now gone and only a handful of people remember how to do them and that's if you can find someone in a forum anywhere who knows.

If something like that had been documented permanently on a forum such as this it would be around for anyone in the future who buys a used grizz or even a new one since the 700's are mostly unchanged.

I still have a few PDF Manuals saved for 3 or 4 ATV's for example This is the part im not sure how legal it is , but im sure many could use a central easy place to find such things.

I have for example a Honda 350 Manual how many 100s of thousands own those ranchers , you cant buy anymore but lots still own them or buy them used and might need a manual.

Well now, just throw the reigns over to myself, X-Treme and Fsnow and we'll get it done for you guys. Maybe even ban SBR while we are at it 👍
