    Default Why is it on Unicode?

    Um... it seems like the default character set for the forums is suddenly Unicode. This, ultimately, means that unless you change it to Western European for every page you view, special characters such as quotation marks, é in Pokémon and such will show up as question marks or boxes.

    Could this be fixed?

    I don't know what you are talking about. Pokémon shows up fine for me. I can see the 'é'.

    EDIT: Yeah, I see it now. WTF?

    Yeah, it needs to be reset to ISO-8859-1. Already filed in the TPM To-Do List, but thanks for the heads-up anyway...

    *kicks Jay*

    Godly Kyle, my ass. You know damn well that I am God.

    Besides, with Kevin back it should get done eventually, when he gets time of course.
