Okay I've had this happen three times now on the forums. I post and this weird random block of text appears at the bottom of my posts. I dont know what causes it and I can try and edit it out but it always comes back.

Hmm...
Do you copy paste from Word? It very often adds garbage when pasted into a browser (at least for me in firefox)
To remove it, you will need to click the BBCode icon on the top of the text box when editing your post.
The garbage showing up is "wrong" code that has sneaked into your post. Therefor it doesn't show up in the normal text box, which does not show code. The BBCode mode though makes all the code appear and allows you to edit it, so you can scroll down and delete it all.

It did it to me again about 2 mins ago. I did not copy/paste from Word but I did go back into the post to edit a spelling error. Then the wall of text showed up. I used your BBCode suggestion though and it cleared up.

Sometimes the forum has some trouble displaying very new posts.
It's as if the forum itself has a cache and displays an older version of itself.
It can drive one crazy - you see that a thread has 3 pages of posts, but if you open the thread it only shows 2, for example.
So your post may very well be there, but not show up for a few minutes.
