I'll update if I manage to get it to go through.

Edit 1: It's not the slash, and putting spaces before the periods doesn't do anything either. I also tried copy/pasting it in and out of a text editor in case there was some weird unicode, but that didn't do anything.

Edit 2: Snipping off the second sentence allowed me to post, then editing and pasting it back in worked. I also refreshed the tab a few times to see if that was the problem (didn't do anything). No idea what was going on here.

In your Edit 2, when you said you left out the second sentence and got it to successfully post, just to be clear do you mean the "Any idea of the name?" sentence?

Sorry, yeah, I cut everything from "Any" onwards. Posted the first bit, then edited the rest back in.

If you have the text somewhere from before you edited it - the failing text, that is - maybe paste it in at somewhere like https://r12a.github.io/app-conversion/ and compare the UTF codes with those of the edited text that works. Maybe there's some wonky character that tripped it up? Maybe something I wouldn't even expect to be a problem like a hard to see double space separating some words?

Anticlutch found it above. It's "bit" and "does" separated by a space. No idea how I got it to paste in the end.
