B⃦ sucks extra hard for being 2 chars (we invented new problems for you!)
B⃦ is itself a single character, even if comprised of two codepoints.
It's also the same character the forum is using a webfont to render in
BTC.
Using multiple codepoints for a single character is
not new.
How many times do you need to see posts from others saying (and even showing) that it isn't displaying for the majority of people as it does for you?
Such problems are irrelevant. I'm not suggesting changing anything.
Are you using UTF-16 instead of UTF-8?
No, I only use UTF-8.
Have you successfully rendered this symbol on a system using UTF-8?
Yep, in fact I'm pretty sure these forums use UTF-8 only.
Edit: Actually, looking at the source, I see the forum is choosing ISO-8859-1 encoding, which doesn't work with Unicode at all.
This is likely the reason why many people are having technical problems.Have you viewed this symbol on any system other than your own?
Yep, just pulled it up on a Mac I have lying around and it rendered fine in Lion/Safari.
