^ I've never given a rating without a review so I'm not sure. Are you posting a review along with the rating?

The double quotation mark becoming a question mark continues on Word. . I have to return to edit my review via Collaborators and correct, then it works and comes out fine . Otherwise , the direct way still has bugs. Que pasa?
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

I don't have any problems with posting reviews , I already posting 4 yesterday and today without problems  , instead the main page look quite funny, I mean the words are very tight together like somebody squeeze them. The whole PA looks strange, better was before . I think M@x works really hard to fix this. This version of PA , at least from my side is rather strange. Even the style of the every band is no more.

I also have problems with ".

 
Since it is recommend to use Word to create our reviews (for the use of the spell checker: remember we aren't all English native speakers), I started to to see that only ' showed up. For several months, I spent a huge amount of time in performing the corrections after the posting.
 
What I do now is to use two apostrophes instead, and it works pretty well. So " = '' . Since I use so many  " to introduce a title or a band, it is more convenient now...
 
Cheers.

Thanks for your help [email protected]'ve just never had a problem with this before, and I've done over 150 reviews in Word, copying and pasting them.

It's an inconvenience, and one I hope there will be a solution for, but at least I can still post reviews. Smile

I wrote an entire review in MSW first - making sure to avoid quotation marks (though I did not know about the apostrophe issue) - and pasted it into the review box.  Yet not only did it replace the apostrophes with question marks, but also some - but not all - of the hyphens, as well as the ellipses.

The whole thing seems strangely inconsistent and arbitrary.  There MUST be a way to solve this: I have never had this problem in any other forum to which I contribute - and I contribute to literally dozens.

Peace.

Write reviews in Notepad rather than Word ... that way you won't introduce any special characters to start with.

Do you mean we'll need to go through every future review and manually take out all the question marks?


Or just re-post the review?
