On my profile there is a huge blank area at the top and all the comments are way towards the bottom. Oh and I just noticed there's no emoticons for me... :c

Don't know if those qualify as majorly wrong, but those are the only things I've noticed so far.

The "staff memeber" rank is placed wrong (look under your name :p)

And this "post box" where you write your post gets bigger and bigger every time you touch a key from your keyboard :p
