I tried to posted a message in the PC forums, but no matter what my message looks like, I always get an error message telling my that my HTML is not well-formed. What's causing this?  :(

if you use [, ], < or > symbols in your post then they can cause 'html' errors as GS thinks that you have unclosed (or incomplete) html or BBCode tags in your post...there are other things of course, but that's the usual reason...if you copy and paste images into your posts then you need to either ensure that the html code for that image is suitable for use on GS, or you can avoid such a problem by copying the image's URL and inserting the image via the insert image option in the editor or via manually typing the BBCode or html code for it instead

I didn't use any of these, no. Strange enough, it worked an hour later...

Talk about 'make something simple much harder than it has to be.' I have exactly the same problem. Have Looked through the text and there are no funny characters. If Gamespot want to make such a simple thing as posting this hard, there are a million other 'game sites' that you can use.'

I have a hard time accepting that after looking at your post count.

I think the Technical support board is the place that will provide you with the best help.
