Why is the letter "I" red, when I type it?

I type the letter "I" such as the beginning of this sentence. It is automatically changed to a red color font. Does anyone have this observation and why would this occur? It's only on this forum, generally only the start of a sentence, and I don't know why.
 
I don't see to have that. Browser issue, some sort of grammar checker installed? Too many years since I took an English class, but something about your initial sentence makes me want to rewrite it, so I wonder if a grammar checker is upset.
 
I don't know. See, it did it here. It does not appear in red font after I submit my comment, just when I type it. It's not a grammar issue, not an issue with lower case, etc. I cannot figure it out (the red font did not occur on this last sentence, which is odd; only on the first sentence).

it is at your end. what browser and addons do you have?
 
i get red underline for words that my browser thinks are incorrectly spelled (deliberately done in this sentence).

No change in font color.

I believe this is a browser setting, and I also think this is more of a forum question, so I'm moving this thread there.
 
Doesn't matter if I start the sentence off with a lower case or capital (i,I) doesn't turn red I'm using chrome browser on an Android phone. I'll have to check my Galaxy tablet or iPhone later on. Probably just a spell checker sniffing for proper grammar

Since my phone recently updated, my browser (Opera) also developed some weird problems. It happens on other forums, so it isn't specific to BITOG. I suspect the 'red I' effect is a similar glitch that started after an update (???)
