Apostrophes and quotation marks look fine in the regular comments under a game, but when you click "comments" in "my stuff," often they appear like this (when they are "smart" quotes.)

There's something specific that causes that, it has to do with how rich text reads the characters iirc. It used to happen in more places so it is possible to eliminate.

Don't use smart quotes, then this doesn't happen. It has to do with ASCII sets and the smart quotes don't work right in web 1.0. It's quite annoying, but that's how things work. Usually if you paste as plain text, the smart quotes go away and you won't see this.

He's talking about when people comment on your games though.

Anyway this is one that JJJ can probably fix easily, because I know they used to show up on game descriptions read from profile pages and now they don't.

Oh.

Hmm... I wonder if that page can be updated to translate the rich text. That's what it looks like it would take to fix that.
