Fonts gone weird on mobile site

In the last few minutes, the first post on a thread (which I have highlighted) has a strange font. It makes my eyes go funny. Same thing has happened to the buttons up there at the top (Log Out; Inbox; Desktop Site). Anyone else?

I'm on a iPhone 5 using safari.

Mines just gone mega pale but it's every post. It's fine while typing it out though.

I've emailed a screen shot. I zoomed in by accident - it looks like the shadowing on the font has gone wrong.

It's not just the font, I can't get 'reply' to work and it suddenly told me I was watching a thread and I hadn't even been near the 'watch' link!

The font looks shadowed on the OP's posts.

It's looks fine on my iPhone but incredibly slow and links aren't working, but totally buggered (technical term) on my Kindle Fire HD.

HarrietJonesPM · 29/11/2013 17:17

I can't go down some threads. Only see the top posts though its probably saving my bank if I can't get on the bargain thread

MirandaWest · 29/11/2013 17:20

I'm on an iphone 5c on the mobile site and it looks like someone's put chalk on the screen or something like that. Will send a screenshot.

HectorVector · 29/11/2013 17:27

My fonts have gone wrong too, faint and shadowy. But it only happens when I post in a thread.

HectorVector · 29/11/2013 17:28

Ahh yes I see. It's all highlighted posts, therefore mine and the OP's posts only. Making my eyes go funny!

Guineapigfriend · 29/11/2013 17:40

It makes me feel ill!
