Request Issue with the response boxes

when I'm typing in the submission box, like every time I type something, the box keeps jittering around and moving lower. It's really irritating, as it means what I'm typing in is slowly moving off the screen as I'm making a post.
 
Can confirm the box has been busted for a while. @Wes - to specify, there's been a lot of issues where it deletes or breaks whatever I'm typing because it's trying to keep formatting even when I toggle it off. I've also had those jitters before, though it's far less consistent compared to the text format BS.
 
This still happening? Any more details you can give me? Have you tried a different browser?

Still happens for me with using bold, italics, and underlined sections.

I've also started getting a new bug that will do a second backspace when I'm backspacing to remove any enter-key line skips. Basically, if I double-space like I did between these two sentences, it only takes 1 press versus 2. This has actually caused me to delete and mess up my sentences more than a handful of times because I don't account for it (it only happens on SARP). Dunno what it is, but it seems like updates only seem to make things rougher and more weird to account for while typing up posts.
 
Okay, so; these bugs are still plaguing me.

I know they're bugs because they only happen on SARP. Like just typing that prior message, it kept deleting my message and ignoring my format-breaks to swap back to normal text.

Double-spacing this line? If I hit backspace when I typed the big D (ayyy), then it would not only backspace to the line, but it'd double-backspace and delete the spacing.

These bugs are only present on SARP, which is one of many XenForo forums I regularly visit. I notice it so much because SARP is the one I use the most and it constantly messes with my post writing and makes formatting posts a genuine problem. It only started in the last few batches of updates over the last 2 or 3 months (spitballing roughly) and it hasn't improved or fixed itself out at all.
 
Does it still happen when you're on a different style setting other than Star Army Tactical? Maybe it's a javascript thing with the style.

I still haven't been able to reproduce the issue on my end.
 
Yep. It's doing the same thing on Xenforo's default.

As I said; it seems to be an issue only on SARP. I do not receive it on any other site and I've consistently been able to repeat these bugs for months now.
 
Okay, maybe it's something with Cloudflare? *brainstorms*
