I had this problem before, not sure why but it seems like the board rejected some formatting or something. Try posting just part of your message and avoid any special symbols or characters.

You typed "This is unbelievable! I cant type my text tried numerous times!", so clearly you can post and there is just some problem with the text you want to post.
As I said, try posting just part of the message you want to post, avoiding any unusual symbols or formatting (like links, bold, italics, etc.).

I'm selling my lovely Sukar Oud (model 15) .. It's made in 2014 and I bought it indirectly from Ibrahim Sukar .. It has been a very long journey for the Oud to land in my hands and that's due to the instability in Syria ..

Sukar ouds have become rare particularly after the workshop has been bombed in the war ..

The Oud is in very good condition and has excellent sound .. It has 12 strings (6 courses) .. The back of made of alternating types of wood that gives it the orange colour .. It has a very low action which is easy to play ..

I have recorded videos and posted it on YouTube http://youtu.be/1UfpD9GRKdc and http://youtu.be/Av0wHNVekt8 apologies in advance about my poor playing, but the real sound is better than what's in the video which I took from my phone ..

The Oud is listed on other websites therefore I might withdraw it should it be sold elsewhere ..

It comes with its original leather bag and a plastic plectrum ..

Any trials are very welcome ..

I prefer local pickup but can post for a fee (please ask before bidding/buying) ..

It seems that I can post one line, if I go above that, nothing shows .. I tried all night yesterday and all this evening!

yes, it's very strange. I had the problem the other day. Hopefully someone is aware of the issue and can figure out what's going on.
