Since upgrading one of my systems to Windows 8 I have found that the Enter key no longer functions with your forums. Hence no carriage returns between paragraphs, greetings, or signatures. At first I figured it was my machine and perhaps a driver issue. However, I have since tried these forums with other Windows 8 machines and see the same behavior. So far these are the only forums that I notice this behavior on. Compatibility mode has no effect on this issue. Can one of your webmasters take a look into this? Thank you.

Sorry, I posted this in the wrong support forum. I've reposted in the Forum support forum. Thank you.

You should probably include what web browser you are using when this occurs. I use chrome and my return key functions as intended.

Just a heads-up. This had nothing to do with Windows 8. It could potentially have something to do with IE 10, but since I don't use that on my Windows 8 (I much prefer Firefox), I can't speak to that. Windows 8 rocks from a system performance perspective. Faster Startup, Shutdown, and overall responsiveness. Hell, it's faster than my wife's new Mac. Just sayin'. Try another browser as someone else may have suggested already.

Good Luck!

it's IE10 that is the issue, I have it on my tablet but I've had to also install chrome to get round alot of websites not working properly on IE10, despite chrome not being as tablet friendly
