I've never heard of this before... Does it only happen on NS? Sounds like a browser thing IMO.

It could be the text. Random gibberish is actually foreign characters in Unicode that I don't believe made it to ASCII or another lower-level character form.

I thought the objective was "un-necessary censorship".

Perhaps the posts you are viewing aren't using the straight apostrophe ('), but instead are using the curly apostrophe (’). My best guess is that the charset the forum uses is incompatible with some characters... or there's no charset being set at all... or there's a problem with your internet browser and how it's interpreting charsets.

It's got nothing to do with censorship, though. :p

Tapatalk's the mobile thingie, yes? Probably a matter of your device's software being unable to parse the code for curved apostrophes or inverted commas. I believe my cell uses straight quotation marks (tic marks?) instead of the "fancy" curved ones.
Now the stars they are all angled wrong,
And the sun and the moon refuse to burn.
But I remember a message,
In a demon's hand:
