I'm using Safari on my MacBook to type this response. I normally use Chrome on the same laptop. I doubt the same browser technology is used for the laptop compared to their mobile technology.

Formatting seems to be working again.
The "reply with quote" has not been working for some time when using either chrome or safari on a desktop.
The formatting buttons - including the one to add a link to sites without messing up the thread formatting - seem to have completely disappeared, whether you reply to post, use "quick reply" or start a new thread altogether. I think this dates from that week when the entire forum formatting went skew-whiff for a while.
I don't know why, but I suspect we're using a pretty old version of forum software.
Edit - I just looked on my phone (iPhone, using Safari) and I see the formatting buttons are still there if I want to respond to a post (and presumably start a new thread). Must be something to do with just the desktop version of the forum software.
I thought I would have a look at my mobile version (google pixel 7 + chrome) and there are no formatting buttons.
Also, no formatting buttons with Firefox on my phone

I just noticed that the formatting buttons - including the one to safely add links to certain sites - seem to have returned (at least on my Edge-using PC).
I need to migrate to VB5. VB4 is no longer supported, so over time it's going to become more unreliable.
Captain, I am detecting large quantities of win in this sector
About 10 days ago I started having problems with slow loading of the RWO website. I have been getting a connection timed out message after 30 seconds. I can usually get the website to load eventually, but there is definitely something wrong. I haven't noticed any other computer problems during this period. I am having this problem on different devices and operating systems, but haven't tried it out using a different wifi.
I am just tying to narrow down the problem and am wondering if there has been some change with the RWO system that might account for this.
Thanks.
Tapatalk is not a viable option on a desktop (short of running some sort of emulator). As with AB Swannie, "reply with quote" not working on desktop (in my case Chrome and Firefox) but working on Safari on iOS (albeit with a slight workaround which is to go to the "Go Advanced" button.
