That must be down to your phone or the settings, not the forum software.

Maybe don't use backspace to remove the space but just hit the full stop.

Cheers. I'll try that. Although I just typed something on another forum and it doesn't do that.

Oops. Sorry, nasty cold ; )

I have a question.
When I'm replying to a post on here via my phone, whenever I type in a word the text automatically then puts in a space. If I want that to be the last word and go back and put in a full stop.
When I do that it automatically removes the last letter of the last word.
Any idea what's going on there?
Not sure if I'm getting this across properly.

You shouldn't have that problem. If I'm posting using my phone (which is the way I post 90-odd percent of the time), when I'm typing the last word, and predictive text suggests the actual word, and I click on that (rather than continuing typing), the phone will then insert a space after the word. And when I then click the full stop, it appears right beside the last word (no space, as it should be). If I carry on typing however (rather than using predictive text), the issue doesn't arise as the space doesn't materialise. Android phone, by the way. Fuck Apple!

Just wondering if there was a way of having a palette that you could use to select the background in the dark theme. For me, the black is too dark, therefore I stick with the regular theme.

Just trying it now Jim.
Looks like I have been wasting my time and brain cells by trying to remove the space before putting the full stop.
Thanks and thanks to @Centurions

The black would come in handy if we lose the first five games next season.

Maybe check for any software updates. Also, what keyboard are you using? I'm using Microsoft SwiftKey.

He's Canadian (adopted or real, meh), you've got to make allowances. Big brother down south likes to shag warm apple pie.

For an android phone, go into settings, then go to "general management", then "keyboard list and default". Select your keyboard. If you haven't got it, download it from the play store.
