Shame about the thread. I wish I remembered the easy way of doing that to them. It was.. RC or someone like that, I last remember doing it. Can't remember. Having a memory that doesn't really extend past this morning doesn't help. Posts: 1487 | Registered: Sunday, February 10 2002 08:00 |

RC had a unicode character in his signature that caused one person's browser to crash. There is also a unicode character that reverses the text that follows (until the next paragraph or linebreak, iirc). It was highly fashionable back in the day. It doesn't work in all browsers. -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

I tested this, and as close as I can tell, it only works with Netscape/Mozilla. Edit: I just noticed that the destruction of TM's topic has created a five-month gap in my recent posts listings. Everything I posted between the beginning of March until the end of July is missing from said list.

Hmm, I just definitely seem to recall this happening before and when talking about it with Drakey, it was something to do with a certain character/character string. Might be early senility though. Posts: 1487 | Registered: Sunday, February 10 2002 08:00 |

This character string didn't occur in Mountain of Shadows. The common factor, however, is the sheer volume of text. -- As for a Unicode character that crashes browsers... only a short while from the technology allowing you to stab people in the face over the internet (which is going to make its inventor very rich indeed...) -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

The obvious path to success is not to release the technology until you have also discovered a failsafe defence, and then keep the lid on the defence until you have discovered a way to bypass the defence.

It's easy to think you have a defence, until some hacker proves you wrong. It might bring a whole new meaning to the term 'patch'. -------------------- We're not doing cool. We're doing pretty. Posts: 3335 | Registered: Thursday, September 4 2003 07:00 |

With this stabbing someone over the internet thing, a handy name for the hacker's patch- an eyepatch perhaps? -------------------- When you think you can't get any lower in life and hit rock bottom, God hands you a shovel.

Hey, a side note: in my school's Boards, we reached with a Thread 40 pages, and the UBB for revenge has devoured twenty of them!

Indeed, and it is pretty much exactly what happened here and with MoS. The reason some pages are still there is because UBB caches stuff in a weird way. -- Your school uses UBB?

What caused this outbreak? (WKS didn't look that unstable to me.) -------------------- Be careful with a word, as you would with a sword, For it too has the power to kill.

I suspect it was a similar outbreak to my "Hail Dikiyoba and Cthulhu" fit, except more severe. Remember that the stablest people here have given their sanity to the turtle.
