Replies Rejected

I have tried to respond to several posts by using the "Quote to Reply" toggle, but each time my post is rejected saying my reply is too short and needs "more than 3 characters." Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

only if I enter less than three characters

It has happened to me too. Usually if I resubmit the post it will be accepted eventually.

No.

I never use that option. If I want to reply to a post and I can't reply immediately after the post, I simply use the quote option.

That's what I mean, the quote option.

Found the problem - artifact characters from the original post were being interpreted as my response entries - too few so the reply would not take.

In Kevin's initial post he had typed "more than three characters". I responded with "No.", which is of course, three characters -- just as you've pointed out.
