Q: DDouble capitalizing first letter in Community Only

EEvery time I post in these Community forums on my iPad Pro 9.7" in Safari, it capitalizes and duplicates the first letter. I keep going back and fixing it in my usual posts, but I left it on this post so you could see what I'm talking about. No other page in Safari is doing this. Only the Apple Support Community. I've tried all the standard fixes (restarting, quitting Safari, etc.) but it looks like it may have to do with the actual site itself. I've noticed other people's posts with this same occurrence, so it's not just me. Thoughts?

Fellow Community Members!

On my iPad Pro 9.7" with iOS 9.3.1, I installed a third-party keyboard "PadKeys" and it doesn't double-type/capitalization of the first letter of the paragraphs on this Community pages anymore!

Only the first word of a paragraph.
Bug with iPads (iphones too?) - no solution = only workaround that I have heard is to type a space first or merely correct it after - I have thought that I would merely stop using caps altogether if I had an iPad!

EDITadded
The bug is in the SiteWare NOT the ipads or iphones

It's a known issue with Jive, the software that runs the forum. As babowa notes, it's been an niggling annoyance for quite some time.

I've only been around for about 6 weeks, so I'm sorry to hear some of you have been dealing with it for more than a year.

Accidental typos make me crazy and I always fix them, so I thought I would ask about this issue.

Thank you, everyone, for your responses.

Yeah, it makes me crazy some days, too.

Just be glad you missed the days of the Indian Astrologer Spam attacks.

As it happens, I did a little digging on this subject just today...

As it turns out, the only mention of this anomaly that I could find is here on ASC - none on http://tinymce.com/, https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce/issues, or https://community.jivesoftware.com/ or anywhere else

We here are apparently "special" (iPad users at least)

The June 2014 Forum update that brought us the current Forum to be exact. It's almost the 2 year anniversary already.

It was my first Forum update and the first time I ventured outside of the Using iPad Forum. The fireworks in the Using ASC Forum rivaled those in the Lounge. Hard to forget.
