It's no bug, it's a feature!

Asphira was able to create a thread 5 minutes after you posted.

great :P

I guess giving a shout out to the recently passed comedic icon Jerry Lewis is going to have to wait

So do we have to come up with 9[url=][/url]1 ways to get around that now?

does that work for [url=https://www.gog.com/forum/general/the_what_did_just_update_thread/post17291]links[/url] as well?
// nope

Still, GOG's way of fighting spam-posts with phone numbers in them is beyond lazy and ridiculous. Congrats to whoever came up with this bright idea, and to the one who approved it as a viable solution.

EDIT: Should have known there's a trick in there. Still stand by the rest of my post, though.

no, skeletonbow is just cheating :p

91, 9[i][/i]19, or 9,191 if necessary! :P

It was just brought to my attention in another thread, so amended my post accordingly; cheers.

Blah, there are better tricks than that, it turns out we don't need

(double-blah, the trick I was attempting got lopped off by the forum software also LOL)

We don't need what? (oh, I just saw your edit :P)


PS: I wonder what's special about the italics tag...

How about this?


EDIT: Nope.

I was attempting to directly use unicode code points U+1D7EB and U+1D7E3 to represent ninety-one, but that is outside of the UTF-8 range IIRC, so I tried another 2 codepoints within the first 64k which should be valid - U+FF19 and U+FF11 but the forum software lopped off from that point to the end of my sentence so no dice. :)

Too bad, it would have not had anything visibly hidden when quoting in a reply. :)

Was trying that too.

Ouch, that hurts! So it also matched to post numbers in replies. Now I know why the forum did not let me reply to this post for hours, because it has been post number 191...
