But seriously, it sounds like this is an issue with some of the more obscure browsers. I will be sure to let the vBulletin folks know so it can be corrected for an upcoming version.
I've been away for a while but I wanted to come back and comment on this... considering that Safari is now the default browser for Mac OS X, I'm not sure it qualifies as "obscure." I suppose you could try to argue that Macs are "obscure" computers, but...
There's a lot of websites that don't work quite right or don't work at all with Macintoshes. Considering the web wasn't originally meant to be platform-specific, that's really a shame, and it would be too bad if Muppet Central became one of those sites.
By the way, I was once again instantly rerouted to the "you must register" screen when I visited the forum today, even though this is the same computer I visited it on the last time and cleared out my cookies. So it appears this will be a recurring problem for the browsers it happens in.
There are also some small layout glitches in the new vBulletin software in Safari - for instance, the "Quote message in reply" checkbox in the Quick Reply section doesn't get drawn inside the "options" box.
