So I know this is really minor, but... It seems that however big or small I make my browser window, RYL is just a little too wide to fit in the window, so I end up with a horizontal scroll bar for the extra centimeter no matter what size I make the window. It didn't used to do that. And it's driving me crazy, cause I keep scrolling horizontally by accident when I mean to just scroll vertically. Plus I'm kinda OCD and having a horizontal scroll bar just bugs me.

If you go to Start > Control Panel > Display and then click on the Settings tab, what display resolution is shown under the slider on the left hand side? If the slider isn't set all the way to the right, you're not running your screen at its optimum resolution. If this is the case, move it to the right and press the Apply button.
You should now find that when you maximise your browser Window, RYL fits :)
EDIT: You'll need a different set of instructions to those above if you're running Windows Vista
My display resolution is at 1440 x 900, which is the maximum resolution on my Macbook
Anyway, that's not the issue. RYL changes size to fit my browser window - it even fits on my iPhone. It's just that now it changes size to fit plus an extra inch or so of blue on the right.

Hmm... I think having to open a different browser would be more annoying than the scroll bar is - it's not like it makes the site unusable or anything, I just figured it was probably a bug that you guys might want to know about... and if it helps, I'm pretty sure it's a very recent bug...

I can't be bothered to download other browsers right now, but I have the same problem in Firefox as well. And also in Internet Explorer, but considering the last Mac version was 5.2, I don't think that counts for much. But it's definitely not unique to Safari.

As far as I am aware, no changes could possibly have caused this.
If someone or a few of you could give me the exact browser version number they have where it fails, I will reproduce it and then I will be able to fix it.
Crazy. No code has been changed that is shared between the main site and forum - probably for a matter of months.
Indeed the code the RYL displays for pages on the main site are in no way connected to the code in the forums - completetly different files that happen to look up the same data.
This would appear to be an HTML coding issue, with a table width set too high or a break point syntax error or something.
But having it break in two places at once when I havn't touched anything is certainly confusing!
Good old RYL, got a life of it's own!
Thanks for the info, I will try and reproduce it later, once I have it shouldn't take me long to pin it down,
It happens on all RYL pages, including the ones you linked to for me too. And for me at least, it's relatively new, within the last couple days. I think I first noticed it the day before I posted here, so probably Saturday night.
I'm running Safari 3.0.4 with Mac OS 10.5.2. I also tried Firefox 1.5.0.12 and Internet Explorer 5.2.3 (obviously both are the Mac versions), and saw the same thing.

I have two monitors, one 1440x900 and one 1280x960. I get the problem when ryl is maximised on the 1280x960 monitor but not when it's maximised on the 1440x900 monitor.
It's like part of the page is hiding behind the vertical scrollbar, so you need a horizontal scrollbar too. I got it on all the links you provided, but this page was small enough to not need a vertical scrollbar, so it didn't get a horizontal scrollbar either.
When I scroll right all I get is a bar of blue, behind the vertical scroll bar - it's not like the actual forum has stretched, more something's been added on, if that makes sense?
