WTF SwiftSpear!
Its the off topic forum dude, stop locking shit willie nillie.
Bruce forgot the "ego +2" part of his post.
Wouldn't this sort of thing be better left to PMs? I mean, really, why does a mod need some jackass to make a public poll about some small-time drama like this? IIRC, he's the mod, you're not, so I don't think you're in any position to be telling him how he should mod...

This forum client we're using isn't quite as robust as some of the larger ones out there. Frankly I'm not willing to risk letting something like though if it's possible that it could break the forum. Fizz reported some strange goings on in relation to that thread, and I'm pretty sure that letting people see how much damage they can do to these forums is not in my job descriptionZoombie wrote:It breaks the forum? I mean outside of the thread in question? I did not know that. I'm sorry.

I imagine there's some sort of hard coded limit before it will just start ignoring it and posting the calls as text. I'm not sure about that though...Deathblane wrote:Right, who's up for the 'how many smilies' game? ...Rayden wrote: PS: Sry for for breaking the forum, swiftspear ... we will switch to harmless offtopic games now

Considering that I write forum software a la myupb.com...
quote in quote stuff like that in theory could mess up the database. Not too likely but stuff like that can cause massive problems.
Myupb's database structure is a hell of a lot more stable than most though. Mysql, can do some really wierd shit sometimes.
