Sorry for this. This is a network issue that the hosting provider has. I'm talking with their support team about this. This only affects certain regions. If you use a VPN try to change the country outside Europe and it should work fine.
Not just EU, South Asia is also affected. It's working fine now.
Edit: Can't use without VPN anymore, location set to US (East)

I'm not sure if I should post in this thread or another.
It's about my post/messages count, and about new member post moderation.
My profile's postings overview shows 11 postings (now 12, including this one). However, with posts there is still a count of 2 messages shown, instead of 11 (now 12). Is there some reason for the low message count with posts?
And regarding new member post moderation, it noticed that was still in place with my previous (11th) post. That is completely fine, but is new member post moderation supposed to still be in place with 10 postings?

AFAIK posts inside the sub-forum Community and profile posts are not counted in the messages.

At Mods & Admins, thank you for the work you do in keeping this forum tidy and on track. There was a new member today who posted about a VPN I had never heard of, a promotion post, that I maybe should have reported, instead of replying my concern about in my reply post. Well done :)

@Jack Did you change some settings, or something updated in forum software (as seen in this thread and many others), now YT video thumbnails appear too big. Earlier I could see 2-3 posts on my screen at 100% zoom now a single YT post covers the entire page for me on desktop browser (mobile website appears to be unaffected). Also, profile posts seem to be affected by this.
PS I did sent a pm about it but you never replied 😅

The forum's help page regarding BB codes and URL/linking does not seem to be up-to-date with the actual forum software.
The BB codes help explains simple and advanced linking, but the result is different.

For instance,
I can create a link that the forum shows as:
Flower - Wikipedia
or as:
And with BB code for advanced linking, I can create something like this:
My example link to Wikipedia's Flower page

However, I cannot find how to create a link that simply looks like this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower
But clickable, as the above is not, as I used PLAIN to create that.
How can I create such link?
No matter if I use simple or advanced linking, it is overruled by the forum software.
