I think people have some of thier longer sig lines in the censored words list which is why we have it set to YES here. Not to belabor the point, but why would a long sig line require full word only replacement? I imagine the sig line censor is something like <garbage> maps to <full sig> e.g. kjvkwnerciovndokvna -> cogent stuff Because 1. There is an absurdly short character limit for sigs on these boards and 2. The song in profile hack takes up a lot of space (invisible space) in the sig. So one cannot have a song if they want a long sig. This is the same with the User Title and the custom on/off message. The custom on off message (which makes mine say "Not around" and "I'm here" instead of "Idle Thoughts is online/offline) stores code in the custom user title space. However since people like using the custom on off thing AND user titles, it's required, then, to have people who want a user title longer than, say, two words to have a censored word that shows all of it. If it sounds confusing...that's only because...it is. But you'd understand better if you were presented with the problem, haha. It's also like the old "Set your mood" feature we had. It stopped working so I had to remove it. BUT...some leftover data was left behind in people's sigs. SOME People still haven't cleared this yet. Makes you wonder if they even know about it yet. But it's what makes some sigs have this crap in them: "[ img ]usersmile..blah blah blah.jpg[ /img ]" And also that weird looking tag thingie that you see even more rare these days (it looked something like {-} )

Cool! I suggest that the word "Vote" be included in the tag.
That is, I type Vote: Bufftabby (with spaces of course) and get Vote: Vote Bufftabby , not Vote: Bufftabby .

Added. Too bad I'm too lazy to go around and fix all the ensuing stuttering.

Huh?
You shouldn't get Vote: Bufftabby. You should only get Bufftabby in blue.
If you wanted vote in there you'd have to put vote in there yourself.

I disagree. When you type it out, you're already typing the word vote. I suspect people will omit typing vote a second time and we'll have a lot of blue names that aren't votes.

Yeah, but why not Vote: Bufftabby? You are already typing "vote" why do it twice?

Idle was confused. He's gone to hide under a rock. He'll get it when he and the cicadas emerge.

Fair enough. Poor guy was up at the crack of 9am. I don't blame him for being a little addled.
Vote: test
Unvote: test

works for me, and no stutter or anything.
Thanks
Now if only we could have a button made so that all we have to do is highlight a name and click a button... Where's chucara, didn't he promise us all kids of mods for the boards?

Where's chucara, didn't he promise us all kids of mods for the boards? Get in line. He's still got to finish the list at the Unwashed Village.* *Many of the ones on that list are jokes by me and Doombot.** **But not all.*** ***Although, I don't think any of them are formally collected anywhere.

Where's chucara, didn't he promise us all kids of mods for the boards? (Underline mine) As, like, sacrifices? Or as servants/slaves? How many of the mods even have kids? I don't, but only due to that lousy doctor who decided that I don't deserve to be the mother of a new deity (see Jibba Jabba forum of the domebo board for an explanation).

Boo! Stupid doctor, I was really looking forward to a new deity to worship.
I thought he was bringing us child labour myself, but I guess he's got to get Hoopy's slaves in order first.

Huh. I didn't even notice NAF's typo.
Clearly my powers of observation are slipping.

Yeah, up at the crack of 9am after having gone to bed before at 5am!
Couldn't do four hours. I'm good now, though!
