I've been having the same problem Adam mentioned. The really strange thing though is I can't reply to that thread. Sometimes if I reload the page, it takes me to a Yahoo site.
Error Message every time I post as well
(6 posts) (4 voices)-
I have noticed the same parse error.
Personally, I usually go to the main page to see if the post took, then, if it didn't, back up my browser to where I still have the post and try again.
For me, the really frustrating thing is when I have just written a huge post, go to post it, then get told I have to log in. *dies* I'm sure you may have had that experience once or twice.

The best I can tell people right now is that the developers of bbPress look to be actively supporting it again and that, as part of that support, they're really ramping up integrating it better with Wordpress (which runs the other half of GO). Given that it seems a lot of our problems are with the system recognizing logged in users and given that we don't seem to have these issues on the other side of GO, I'm hopeful that these issues will be fixed in upcoming updates to bbPress core.

John--Aaron is in a sense the middleman here. He's installing the software and taking care of adjustments that meet our needs, but someone else actually designed the software.
Think of him as something like the IT guy in the company. If you're having trouble with your computer, he'll come up and troubleshoot it, but he's not the guy who invented Windows 7 (no matter what the commercials say) and he's not working on Windows 8, he's only making the adjustments to make it run right here.
Concerning this particular glitch, I have a couple comments.
First, if you get it, I advise leaving that window alone and opening another window (you can do that on most pre-Vista Windows-based computers by clicking on the browser icon on the bottom left of the bar along the bottom, or by selecting the browser from the start menu) and navigate back to the Gaming Outpost discussions page. If your post took, you should see it near the top with your name as the last poster (or if someone has posted since you did, you can navigate to the thread to see whether your post is there). If it did not take, then you return to the window with the error message, hit reload (or whatever it's called on your browser), and when it asks whether to resend the data say yes. I do this sometimes a couple times a night lately; I'm assuming it's a glitch with the current version that will be fixed in the next.
Kyler, I'm not sure what advice to give you. If I have that problem I back up to the page on which I wrote the post (which usually retains what I wrote), and use another window to get a login. I'm guessing that your phone doesn't support two browser windows, and that you can't copy and save the text from the post window even if you went back to it. (That might be an option to explore--can you copy/paste from the browser to something like a notepad in the phone, and then reverse the process when you're logged in?)
