Graus just got bit by this bug too. And his message also seemed to get HTML encoded (though he says he didn't have "Do no interpret HTML tags" checked).

Every once in a while, the cursor isn't placed in the edit field automatically, and all the text you typed goes into the bit bucket.
Every once in a while, when you quote text, it doesn't place the quoted text inside a <code>blockquote</code> tag.
When you go back to edit a message, it automatically converts all of the existing tags in the message to their escaped equivalents.
It's becoming a true pain to post messages.

To add in from below, it's pretty well squashed hamsters on Q&A as well.

I saw your message about Hamster poo and just updated your posted question with no problems. Have you tried it recently (last hour?) I updated some faulty code.

Sounds like the javascript that auto-places the cursor into the edit field is being delayed.
Not sure about the auto-converting. Any pattern you can see?

Nope. I notice it when I go back to edit a message.
Hey look! The blockquote worked this time! 
I don't see any patterns really...
When I go to post/edit, my mind is what I'm going to post/edit, and I don't pay attention to much else. I think the gray hairs are interweaving with my cerebral cortex.

Check out the suggestions page (revision 13). Notice that the title says "Quick Answers Suggestions & TODOs" rather than "Quick Answers Suggestions & TODOs" (the ampersand is HTML encoded). Perhaps this is another manifestation of the "Encode HTML tags when pasting" checkbox getting randomly checked every now and then?

A different issue. Previously we were allowing HTML in subjects. A bad idea. I'm now HTML encoding subjects so there will be a few with old, HTML subject lines.
Like ours
[Edit: nope - discovered a subtlely in the bug. Hold yer horses...]

When I copy and paste a web link into a new message for the Soapbox (that is the new soapbox 2.0), then it comes out like:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article7015973.ece
and not like
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article7015973.ece[^]
I have checked that the 'Do not interpret HTML tags...' option is not checked.
With exactly the same options checked it works when pasting in links to this box, and it works when pasting links into a new message for the the Lounge.
Am I missing something here?
(BTW I'm using Chrome, but like I say it usually works)
TIA

Wonder why...

It's your reputation... I thought that answer was obvious, but I guess not.

it's called "integer overflow". Happens to the best.

Do you mean "why are you getting downvoted"?
I would suggest reviewing your posts that had been downvoted and looking at their content and the reaction of the community.

What is wrong with my first post here in this thread? I was just asking a question and I got 2-oneVoted for it

"Why don't the other kids like me? Momma claims, I am a nice boy!"
edit: Woa, that was quick, the post is less then three minutes old, and already down-voted. I wonder why.  But... (whining) I will be strong (sniveling)! I can handle it!
