Everytime i pull stuff from the db, utf8 characters are all screwed, yet when i do native php/mysql chars work fine.

Please post your settings of

Code:
$config['charset'] = ?
$db['default']['char_set'] = ?
$db['default']['dbcollat'] = ?

What is the encoding of your database?

Those are all set to utf8.

CI seems to be doing something to unicode data when it pushes it in the db and pulls it out from the db. If i post utf8 chars natively, I can only pull them out natively and the same goes if i push stuff into the db using CI.
