"Non Latin Unicode characters are temporarily not allowed." is the error message I'm getting, but I don't think the post I'm editing has any of these. It's the first post of this thread that I'm trying to edit
The normal greater than sign ( > ) is within the latin character set.
There is a "Right Arrow Head" ( ˃ ) that looks similar, though.
Edit: It is indeed stopping the < > symbols.
It should not. Curse is looking into a fix.
If there's any specific post that someone is having issues with, I can find the character fairly easy and replace.
Just link me to the post here, here, or here.
We apologize for the inconvenience here. This is not a permanent change. There's no exact time frame for when we'll turn it back on - we just need the spammers to move on. For reference, they have made over 9,000 accounts here in the past two and a half months; each account spamming until banned. Since enacting this change, they haven't been able to post one single spam post.
I certainly understand that the tech team is fighting the good fight against spambots, but I have to say that this non-Latin character thing is driving me crazy. This thread in particular is very difficult to post in given these restrictions.
I notice Blinking Spirit is able to post non-Latin characters in that thread, presumably because he is a moderator. Is there any way this exception could be extended to further users? Those whose accounts are greater than a certain age or something?

For anyone wishing to post non latin characters please contact Feyd_Ruin in this thread here. If you post to that thread requesting permission to utilize said characters he can add you to the list of exempt users.
I apologize for the inconvenience for everyone. It is still planned for the non Latin filter to be temporary but we are not yet comfortable with removing it. We will work on taking it down as soon as we can and in the mean time please request assistance in the thread I linked and feyd can patch you through.
It is also a bit of an awkward situation as the filter was only meant to be a very temporary thing to drive the bots away. Working on a work around for something that is deemed as only temporary is a bit hard to justify. Ideally we come up with a better plan or one in which we can automatically add people to the exempt list. Please continue to be patient with us as I guarantee we have weighed both sides of utilizing this filter.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.
Maybe some sort of post count requirement? A low post count number of say 50?
I asked the same thing but apparently its not functionality that we can achieve at this exact moment. Feyd did add a lot of existing groups to the exempt list but for those who are not on one of those lists we have to manually add them.

So...I've recently been trying to edit my thread's decklist for the past 3 hours and it still gives the error. Only thing is, within the last hour I've seen other users posting with non-latin unicode. What gives?

For instance, any card with an apostrophe in this list is not working for some reason.

Nonlatin characters have been disabled temporarily again. They will be re-enabled again soon.
Also, mobile browsing is being worked on, though there is no ETA, and it's probably a ways off.
