[QUOTE="hyruledweller"]Are the mods even doing anything or is this going to last forever?

Moderators are not doing a thing. They are NOT Techs. Be patient till this gets fixed please.
Yep- us mods are suffering from this just as much as you are, and it's quite frustrating I'd agree.
I try not to be too hard on the techs though. I know that bugs are sometimes a lot harder to fix then you'd expect. (Sometimes easier too, but I seldom see people post things like "Wow, I'm surprised you fixed that glitch so soon.)
Just a reminder to everyone here, this isn't System Wars, it's not a place to compare systems or even really talk about systems other than the Wii. Discussing the possibility of the GTA series coming to the Wii in the future is fine, just be very careful to not stray into SW territory.
As for myself, I don't think GTA4 will come to the Wii. But I do think that a GTA will come out, but it will probably bea Wii-specific spinoff of the main series, and it won't come out for some time. I could be wrong though. I've never been a fan of GTA much, so I don't really care much either way, other than the fact that I want the Wii to do well and other people are fans of GTA, so it could help the Wii do well.
Heh, sometimes I wonder whether Gamespot really needs to take such a harsh stance on discussing other platforms in the platform specific boards. Then I see a thread like this where a joking mention of another platform leads to flaming rather quickly.
Anyways, I'm pretty certain that it's not on store shelves yet, but who knows for sure? Maybe some stores put it out early.
Still happening to me some. I never, or hardly ever, use quick quote/reply, and I haven't been copying/pasting that much lately. I use the WYSIWYG editor, so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it or not.
At least using the preview button seems to catch it.
By the way, regarding the possibility of Obsidian making KotOR III, Obsidian's Feargus Urquhart made a couple of posts in April of this year which touched on that. First, as part of a response to a question involving Post Apocalypic or sci-fi games being made by Obsidian in the future...
"...Finally, I should probably talk about the twin gorillas in the closet. I'm sure there's a correct analogy in there somewhere, but that's what came to mind. Anyway, I'm speaking of the the KotOR3 and Fallout gorillas. Both of those are games that I and everyone else here at Obsidian would love to make. I don't know if we will ever get the chance, but I do continue to talk with LucasArts about what might be going on with KotOR3. As for Fallout, like I said, I'm not sure if we'll ever get the chance, but I know that I'd love to make another Fallout - plus, I think Avellone's already designed the next 12 of them."
Then, regarding licensed vs original games, he mentioned this:
"...So what does that all mean for Obsidian? Well, as I said at the beginning. I want to do both. Two of the products that we are making right now use licenses and one is an original IP that we are creating. By next year, that ratio might be more like one licensed products and two original IP games. But, it wouldn't surprise me if that didn't bounce back the other way a year or two from after that."
If Obsidian is currently working on 3 projects, and one is an Aliens RPG, and another is a Neverwinter Nights 2 expansion, this confirms that they are not currently working on KotOR III, sadly.
So if/when we see KotOR III, it could be quite a while from now.
