    Please review the below attachment. This seems to happen every time I am on this site, and only on this site. Some times I get confused because I have no idea what the person is saying?

    Maybe something up with the inline keyword advertising, Im guessing 'seo' is probably quite a sought after word

    IF that word is not showing when you're posting it, then i suggest you complete the acronyms words rather.

    The keyword SEO in the main post is picked up by the digitalpoint's advertising system and hyperlinked with some javascript code to show an ad related to SEO. the keyword still exists in the original post and most users can see it as a hyperlinked and highlighted text which on clicking opens one of the advertiser's wesbite.
    But you can not see it in the original post because one of your ad blockers is detecting it as an inline ad and is blocking it, resulting in disappearance of the keyword from the text.
    You can however see it in quoted text because that one is not picked by the digitalpoint advertising system to show an ad.
    Many keywords on a single page ( and mainly the most essential keywords like directory, google, links etc ) may show ads and hence be invisible for you, causing the whole dilemma.

    Solution: Either turn off your ad blocker or make an exception in it to exclude Digitalpoint.

    Hope it helps :)
