OooOOooOOOOoooh. You're evil. I love it.

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

It would be even better if the title of the thread was blank.

We haven't had one of those in ages!

Posted by Jay (Member # 5786) on :

funny

Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :

You can't have a blank thread title any more, Teshi, which is why we haven't had one. [Frown]

Bring back the blank!!!

Posted by kaioshin00 (Member # 3740) on :

OH really? [Wink]

well i guess it's not exactly blank, curses.

*laughs*

i clicked on the thread title and came right in...god bless my computer for not supporting symbols sometimes.

Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :

Not bad. Not bad at all. Color me impressed.

Another wise guy. [Roll Eyes]

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

Yay! I got in! I'm not a complete loser!

You know what's crazy? The "click on the title right before it and then click next topic" doesn't work with this. I guess it didn't recognize the symbol or something?

Posted by skillery (Member # 6209) on :

HRE did it about a year ago. Can't remember what char he used though.

Posted by Telperion the Silver (Member # 6074) on :

I got in! I got in!

All by myself too! Muwahahahha!

Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :

Um, I seem to be missing something. Was it supposed to be difficult to get in here?

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

I can't from the forum itself. But from the outside forum listing...

Posted by BotaLadyG (Member # 7053) on :

yeah, I got in! I got in! yippy for the newbie!! [Smile]

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

There are many ways to enter the thread of mystery. [Wink]

Posted by Beren One Hand (Member # 3403) on :

Ummm... the thread title is visible in firefox.

Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :

Ooooh, so it isn't for others? Thanks for clarification, Beren

Posted by Kama (Member # 3022) on :

and opera.

Posted by Telperion the Silver (Member # 6074) on :

*sings some opera*

Posted by Beren One Hand (Member # 3403) on :

Yeah, I shared your confusion quids. [Smile]

Posted by Corwin (Member # 5705) on :

I actually see a square as thread title, and can't click on it. So yeah, I'm a *little* impressed. On the other hand it going to the previous thread and clicking Next DOES work for me. So here I am...

Edit: From the Active Forums or Today's Active Topics I can just click on the title though... Oh well...

Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :

I'm thoroughly lost. On my own laptop this morning (I use firefox) I had absolutely no problem getting in... now I'm on campus (also using firefox), and the only way I could get in was to go one beside it and click "next." I didn't realize something was actually difficult about getting in... I'm so confused.

Posted by Anna (Member # 2582) on :

He he.

Posted by Papa Moose (Member # 1992) on :

I'm really tired. This is as good a place as any to tell someone.

Posted by Anna (Member # 2582) on :

Well, since we're at it, I'm quite hungry.

Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :

I had no trouble getting in from firefox...

Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :

If you have certain symbol packs installed, you can click right on the square. Otherwise, you cannot.

Posted by scottneb (Member # 676) on :

Yeah, I got in from the "Today's Active Topics." I'm gonna do some more experimenting.

Posted by Anna (Member # 2582) on :

I used the classic "go to the previous thread and click on next thread" trick. I use IE at work.

Posted by scottneb (Member # 676) on :

I found another way!!!

[Party]

Posted by scottneb (Member # 676) on :

...and another.

I didn't think I was this good!

Posted by Anna (Member # 2582) on :

Tell us ! Tell us !

Posted by Stray (Member # 4056) on :

Firefox let me in just fine. I see something like an underscore that's half the usual length on the main forum page, and can click on it the normal way.

Posted by scottneb (Member # 676) on :

In IE right click a blank spot and change your encoding to anything other than Unicode. Tada! A jarbled mess you can click on.

Interesting

Posted by sarcasticmuppet (Member # 5035) on :

I go to the post list of someone I know was in this thread (In this case, Jay) and was able to click the link from there.

Posted by Stray (Member # 4056) on :

Funny, I'm using Firefox on Windows [Dont Know]

Posted by babager (Member # 6700) on :

WOO HOO... Thanks guys!!!! I feel so included!!! [Big Grin]

Posted by Dragon (Member # 3670) on :

that is great.

lol

Posted by syipress (Member # 7569) on :

That was neat kaioshin. I got in by clicking on one of your other posts and searching your recent postings. I've never seen anyone make one of these types of postings before [Smile]

Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :

Eeeeeeeexcellent!

[Evil Laugh]

Posted by AntiCool (Member # 7386) on :

I'm using firefox on windows as well, and I am able to se a character in the title and click on it just fine.

Posted by Constant Reader (Member # 7282) on :

I was very confused about all this until I got halfway down the page and saw the explainations. I see an underscore and clicked in as normal. I'm on a Mac with Safari.
Macs Rule! [Big Grin]

It certainly does. That's how I got in last night (after the title was changed).

But then I realized I could get in by clicking on the teeny bit of title, the usual way. D'oh! [Razz]

Posted by Jay (Member # 5786) on :

Fun

Posted by scottneb (Member # 676) on :

Okay, something's suuspicious about Jay. I don't really know him to give one word posts, he usually elaborates.

What gives?

Posted by scottneb (Member # 676) on :

Aw! Two pages, now it's way too easy to get in! [Grumble]

Posted by kaioshin00 (Member # 3740) on :

[Frown]

It's all your fault scottneb

Posted by Derrell (Member # 6062) on :

[Wave]

Posted by scottneb (Member # 676) on :

BUMP

(I'm reviewing the code and it's easier if this thread is at the top.)

Posted by skillery (Member # 6209) on :

So which is the best escape sequence for all browsers? This thread shows up on IE 6.0 and Mozilla 1.7, whereas HRE's does not. However, HRE's showed up on other browsers.

Posted by Eruve Nandiriel (Member # 5677) on :

Wow. Clicking on that link was a perfectly good wast of 3 seconds. [Roll Eyes]

That's funny... I usually just skip the twenty-ninths of January and go right on to the thirtieths. [Wink]
