At the top of the GTP forums theres an arrow that does nothing. It looks like this
-->. Is it a bug? This is not pointing to anything so I have 2 opinions why its there
1. Jordans doing something to the forums
2. Its a bug and needs to be sorted fast.
Please reply.
 
I use my PS3 Browser for GTP and I see it.
 
I think it's leftover code that's incorrectly showing on the page.
 
I don't see no arrow?

Firefox btw.
 
I can see the arrow. With Firefox BTW. But yeah it seems pointless.
 
Can someone screenhunt the arrow so Jordan can see?

It looks as if Premium members can't see it, because, even I can see it.

Must be part of the ads then since Premiums get no ads.
 
^Near the tab that says News, Forum, etc.

BTW, IE8. InPrivate Filtering (ad blocking) on. :)

UPDATE: Turning off Filtering seems to make an observation: the arrow is in the downside of the banner.

Mhm, also thought that in my mind. Maybe the arrow is some future link?
 
Upon checking the code, I think I might have found the culprit:

Those arrows (or <! >) seem to be the closing tag for comments, but that one is without its opening tag, which may be why it's showing as regular text on the page.

1- Place cursor directly after arrow.
2- Press backspace 3 times.
3- ???
4- Profit! (Ads, GTP premium memberships, you name it! =P)




Step 3 is actually saving the page so the arrow won't show anymore. Nothing worthy of concern, really.

Problem is, I view GTP on my PS3 System so is there a way to do it from there

Oh. Sorry, I wasn't clear enough, it's something Jordan can fix, not the end user. I assumed you were asking if it was an easy fix for Jordan, not you.
 
Sorry about that - this should be cleared up now.
