It would be nice, it there was more clear prompt when you try post something that forum has problem.

I was fighting to answer to a CK3 threat, but I was not able to post my reply, because I constantly got:

Trying late or using different browser did not help.

The issue was, that forum did not like, for some reason, link to this Wikipedia article (I will give screen capture of the link, because I am unable just paste it:

I presume that forum has some problem with "ą" in the URL.

test: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gąsawa_massacre

EDIT: I don't understand why it let me paste the link here, but I was unable to paste the link this thread: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/eastern-european-patrimonial-despotism.1623556/

EDIT 2: I know where is the problem, if there is text before the URL everything is OK, but if URL is at beginning of new line, forum has problem.

So if you put the link in the URL bracket it seems OK. Forum has problem with a plain text link pasted at the beginning of new line.

If I am not allowed to paste plain text link at the beginning of the new line prompt should inform me about it.

The URL-Bracket is (normally) auto-generated when posting URL.

/edit: The issue seems to be the special character. When using the URL shown above in the "Code"-Tag it works as expected, regardless if at the beginning of the line or not

So I assume there is a problem with generating the URL-Bracket when URL contains non-English letters in the URL, like often Wikipedia articles have, but only if the URL is at the beginning of the line

It's not about English as such, but about ASCII - but in essence it's the same result.

To be precise, I meant letters that are not in US-ASCII. And as far I remember there are no letters outside modern English alphabet in US-ASCII. This is the problem I saw, after quick analysis, without going into at which point exactly problem occurs for the forum. ;p
