Oddity when using a mobile browser.

When reading the forums from a mobile browser, the body text of each message is inconsistent from post to post. See the attached screenshot for an example.

Normally I would have, but I was in a hurry. It did work for me though.

Regardless, here it is again:

Reason: Update

i can replicate the issue on an android tablet with chrome. will see if anything can be done about it.
this seems to be the coming from posts that have quotations or none

Edit: seems to be related to font boosting. Some CSS hacks exist to prevent it to be applied to websites. No proper way exist to get control over this feature.
Currently not fond of using those 'hacks'. It is more like a browser quirk. Our site isn't the only one suffering from that feature

Thanks for the response, Doca Cola.

What irked me about this is its inconsistency from post to post, although which posts are affected does seem to be consistent from page load to page load.
