Using Chrome Version 29.0.1547.66 m

Tried multiple s, only Oinari-sama's page is doing the problem.

[The condition to make this happen (for me) was:
#1 - The browser's loading icon must be still spinning around (eg within 3s of opening the profile). If the expand icon is clicked before the page is fully loaded, it will retract upon finish loading everything.
#2 - The page must exceed a certain height vs browser dimension or the expand icon won't even come out and a slider will be displayed. #2 was fixed some time ago...

I confirm this.

Chrome 30.0.1599.37 beta-m

Stalkers!!
lol what's with the BGM?

This has been happening to me since the beginning, but I never thought that it may be a bug (always thought it's a browser thing).

Does that help people reproduce the phenomenon?

EDIT: I'm on Chrome Version 29.0.1547.66 m too

Was listening to music so forgot to turn it off :I
Hmm fair point, the page was still loading when this happens. Guess it happens only when a certain page has more content to load.

Should we limit the maximum data, or text characters allowed to prevent this from happening again? :3

The maximum number of allowed characters per post is 60000.

I think my page takes longer to load because of the number of image files present.

Can we change the expand button to an expand/retract button if the tool is available to the forum management?

Oooh, so this is why it's happening... I couldn't replicate every time and find the source of the problem for a long time ;_;

Confirming.

It would be simpler if the expand button appears only when page has finished loading

This actually happened on all browsers I tested (IE 10, FF 23.0.1, Chrome 29.0.1547.66)

As Oinari-sama stated, the Page is retracted (after expanding) upon completing the page load. Hence the glitch is more notable on slower connection (like several Indonesian ISP here )
