Using paste to new thread, page not found

[bglynn]

I was finally able to reproduce this problem.

I just moved to a new server, and everything went smoothly. I'm on 3.5.1 with patches.

The only issue is, when you create a new thread, and paste content instead of type it, sometimes users get the 'page cannot be displayed' newthread.php page when clicking submit new thread. This only started after the move, and only happen when you paste text in.

OK, I've narrowed it down a little.

It's got something to do with the title...if I make a thread called:

Dustin Farthing Signs For Another Year, I get page not found, with html turned off for the forum. If I turn html on, I get a blank page.

If I remove the 'r' from the end of 'Year', it posts ok. I thought it was number of charactor limited, but numerals in a row post fine beyond the 37 in the text title.

This is the text I'm pasting, however it doesn't seem related after all:

Hello Everyone,

Turn off the Similar Thread feature, it's dorked.

[Zachery]

Its not broken or anything, you probally have a large thread table? and everytime you make a new post its got to search the database to find similiar threads.

The similar threads feature works for it's purpose, but it also produces the bug mentioned. Turning off the feature cures the bug, which is vastly more important to me and others.
