One more thing I forgot to ask - what browser do you use?

Weird, I have seen something like this before and it wasn't related to webrep, it relates to images not being displayed and in its place there is the image description.

So it may be that there should be the webrep bars displayed on those posts.

Interestingly I have been browsing the Blackberry Devices section and other than the link you gave I have found no other instance of that displayed and many of those you have contributed to recently, http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=3d27c8bd3340d33b&hl=en

As you can see from my signature I'm using firefox.
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.4.6112 (build 24.4.9067.762) UI 1.0.803/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

Reason for the singularity is it was spotted in an associated private forum so I disabled it in Firefox but then tried tweaking it not to be used in outgoing. Luckily cmsuri is somebody I know and was able to try it out again with.

This hidden advertizing is really unintentional  ;D Thanks for reporting. It will be fixed in the next program update.
