Thread: Why is it ???

Tweet

Been meaning to ask why the text in my posts sits on the black line unless I hit return and put a dot in ??? Other people post and I don't see them doing anything extra

In this posting I will add the dot so you can see the difference

.

i think you can hit enter a couple of times.

nope that didn't work

I've always had the same issue and never really knew why it is like that.

It's because you don't have a 'like' under your own post.
Everybody else does.

Stops ya clicking 'like' a half dozen times to make it look good!

Thought I would bring this back up as never got an answer to the problem, johnboys answer wasnt right, anybody know why ???
Other forums using the V8 bulletin software don't suffer this problem only here ???

i misstoodundered the question i guess .. i dont see any difference in anybody`s posts ..

Post 1 & 2 I see no difference in the message body, what are you typing about?

1 has "Why is it ???" 2 does not is that the mystery ?

The difference in the posts is in post 1 the text is on the black line, in post 2 there is a double gap.

Steve,
I believe that if you looked at the thread on someone else's computer you would see that your post #1 would look identical to everyone else's posts, and your post #2 would have a much larger space at the bottom, plus one lonely period at the left side. As in the response to Mike, the color of the lines, print and background depend on each individual's "General Settings". Unless you have your "settings" aligned, there may be differences in what you see, IMO.

Which is exactly how Steve's Post #1 looks to me, and I expect to everyone except Steve.

I do not see any Black Line - nor any difference in you're posting either.

Might be your computer?

Same on my phone and laptop

I believe that it's like johnboy says, on your own posts (when you look at them on your computer) the whole line for the "Like" button to the lower right is missing, but it appears for everyone else. Everyone else sees your post just as you see theirs with a space between text and the bold line - the last line of text, then a "space" line with a smaller "Like" to the right, then the bold black line dividing between the text string and the signature area. When you do the extra lines and the period it spaces the bold bar down several lines below what we see on everyone else's posts, which is no big deal. It's how it seems to me, anyway.

I have no "Bold Black Line" in any of the posts that I see. I do see a white line just above the signature area.

I'm sorry, I'm not programed to give you that information.
