View Full Version : The vB quote tag and everything inside doesn't count towards your post length...

...which is a two character minimum.
The problem is, I can't just quote someone and submit the post. I have to add something after the quote. Sometimes someone says something exactly the way you're going to say it, so there's no need to add anything after the quote.
Fix, please?
Couldn't you just put two spaces afterwards? :P

Why don't you try it before you suggest it.

It works, but I'm too lazy to do that. There's an option in the admin cp that enables quote tags to count towards the post length minimum. :)

I've tried putting spaces after it, but it doesn't work for me. :( I just end up putting a smilie instead.

Use html. One pair of bold tags, one after the other does the trick.

I can't be bothered to change it to make it count :p If you're only quoting someone and adding maybe only a smilie, you're not really adding anything useful to the thread :p

But the straight quote with no relpy is his trademark!

Well excuse me. A space is a character so I assumed it would work.

Let's have a bench-clearing brawl. Please?

btw spoiler tags don't show up in the box when you highlight a thread title and see some of the first post so now you can get spoiled without even going into a thread now.

Double posting is still illegal though.

Shlup: Most of the time I'll just quote Del because he says things exactly the way I would. What's the point of me just changing his response around and calling it my own? That would be kind of like stealing.
EDIT: Thank you, Shlup. :)
EDIT2: :(

Don't touch my double asterisks. You've violated them.

Oh, and this is four for four in the Feedback forum. Yay! :)

I actually don't like the thread-highlighting feature at all. Fixing that mess would require a lot of hacking, too, so yeah. :x
