I've noticed one or two occurrences where a special character has changed since we switched server. There's a thread in Highland which drew my attention to it - I was wondering perhaps it might affect other areas as well such as regiment names and titles?
The thread is here and it's the last post. If you are not in Highland or an Admin you won't be able to see it. _________________

Yes! The apostrophe! It has apparently been outlawed on the new server, and something must be done IMMEDIATELY to right this wrong! Apostrophes across the entire forum are being opressed, and this must cease, before other wonderful punctuation marks are victimized by silly bugs!
Hey, I'm not crazy... SEE FOR YOURSELF!
This apparently is true for older posts, not necessarily newer ones. _________________

I've found another example in Falena: right here. I'm not sure what is causing it exactly, as it doesn't affect all apostrophes, just the first one when used as a single quote.
For example: ‘bridges'
which I imagine is supposed to be: 'bridges' _________________

msword.
I had some in the INF about material i first wrote up in msword and then copied into the posting field and it came up with the same 'error' yet no error was then produced in notepad. The difference being, while both notepad and msword have times new roman 12pt as their default font setting, msword uses the sans (cursive) version for punctuation whereas notepad doesn't, and thats what caused the 'error'. _________________
