Fixedsys - Wildkins - 09-18-2014

Recently I've been noticing a lot of the threads I've posted in / look at have been looking weird. Apparently, something changed in the last few days that caused the "Fixedsys" font to no longer be accepted by the forum. A few examples:

Everything in Times New Roman should have looked like this: [1]
Any reason / cause for this?

The [font] tag allows you to assign any font to your text and it works independent of the forum software. Basically, it doesn't matter if the specified font is installed on the server machine or in the supported fonts list, once you assign a font to your text using that tag those with that font installed on their system will be able to view it in the assigned font, otherwise it's displayed in the default forum font. The posts you've linked are all in fixedsys so if it's not displaying them with that font for you, it means the issue is on your end and you may want to reinstall the font, that should fix the problem.

Well the odd thing is, it worked before, and now it doesn't. Aside from Windows Updates (which could likely be the cause of this, I guess), I don't think anything on my system has changed since I could see Fixedsys
