In summary, there is a bug in the homework help section where the template is re-appended to the end of a message each time someone previews their post. The bug seems to be present in the advanced physics subforum. Despite this, a user named cristo has answered a question in the subforum.

There seems to be a bug in the homework help section (at least in the advanced physics subforum) whereupon if someone previews their post, then in the edit message box, the template gets re-appended to the end of the message. This happens each time someone previews the post they are working on.

Oh by the way, I posted in that subforum and no one has answered my oh-so-very simple question YET! Get to it people! :)
