The code running the site has been tweaked and played with endlessly over the past decade. They should, really, just WIPE it completely and start from scratch with clean code, but they won't. So every thing they touch and fix tends to break something else.
That said, many of the "technical problems" the stop postings - aren't really problems. They are often the result of anti-spamming code or problems with the interactions between different types of interfaces. Like the PERCENT SIGN issue that many users have when trying to post a question.
Some systems code that as a single characters; others seem to use a different form of coding which triggers the anti-spam code to block the posting.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
