Allow me to extend my gratitude to the heroic comrades on the ChinesePod forum. These brave men and women are at the forefront of the battle against the evil forces of spam and wacky character display.
Here they are:
1. Colin Jacobs aka “Coljac”, creator of the ” Hanzi Helper”
2. Anne Matthias (Anne M.) aka our German CPOD co-blogger
3. Bazza
4. Marchey
5. Aunty Sue
6. Carl
The true character display has now been restored. This work has not gone unnoticed.
Respect.

Just in case… if someone wants to read the whole saga, here’s the forum thread about it (warning: now it is 8 pages long):
Character display problems The story’s not completely done yet, but almost. I’m sure we’ll fix everything.
And I like the picture!
I didn’t really do much on this occasion, I was ready to give up and purge the corrupt posts, all 9000 of them.
But Colin and Anne came to the rescue.
It’s good to be surrounded by smart folks like this!

Let me grab this threat to express my kudos to the Bloggers of the German-CPOD-Blog. Anne and Joachim are doing a fine job there - lots of Chinese-related posts worth reading. You might need to start “Krautpod” to enable every non-German user to appreciate that Blog.
