Every time I try to reply to a pm or just add a response to a thread on my android phone I have the following issue: If I type any punctuation (hyphen, comma etc) it either posts the comment instantly (incomplete but includes the punctuation) which means I have to go back to the post and edit it or it just kicks me off the thread and I have to find it again to try posting again. Anyone else having this issue? Very frustrating.

Interestingly if i use predictive text its ok, it's only if I try to type the punctuation myself that it does it.

 
I'll give that some testing and get back to you. If anyone else is having the same issue then it would help if they comment.

 
Think that was a beta Duck fix they was trying out to limit my posts

Eg: as soon I end the sentence , add full stop...

RIGHT DUCK, THAT's YA LOT & posts it

probably admin error - apply to Duck not to all members

I have an LG G4C which is an Android OS and haven't had this happen to me yet. 

 
I'm using a Samsung s7 edge and the Samsung browser. Will try a different one and report back.

 
Sounds like a setting in your autocorrect/predictive texting. Do you have it so the sentence is ended with a full stop automatically? That sometimes will use a Return function which basically hits submit.

 
I couldn't replicate this either through a bunch of emulators I'm afraid. Might be on your end only. Sorry :(

 
It's the Samsung browser. I'm using chrome on my phone right now and it's not happening.

Thanks for looking into it anyway proffrink.
