It just occurred to me that I have the same initials as Acmlm Championship Series.

Now I'm getting curious as to what your middle name is.

The JCS page is still called "acs.php".

Christine.

Pay attention. This will be on the test.

[15:21:01] <Stark> I understand you're an administrator on jul.
[15:21:06] <cpubasic13> yep
[15:21:17] <Stark> My request is quite simple: Please allow me a custom title.
[15:22:40] <Stark> Is this a request you can accept?
[15:22:40] <cpubasic13> hang on let's see
[15:22:50] <cpubasic13> I can probably do it
[15:23:04] <Stark> User ID 2069.
[15:23:14] <cpubasic13> I just want to make sure it is ok with the other admins (although I see no issues here)
[15:26:08] <cpubasic13> I think you have one now
[15:27:16] <Stark> Haha
[15:27:21] <Stark> That plan didn't work.
[15:27:22] <Stark> I see.
[15:27:28] <cpubasic13> Oh?
[15:27:53] <Stark> Hmm I'm not sure how I feel about this
[15:29:27] <Stark> I presume what just happened was: I was trying to enter a <div> there to style the sidebar, closed in the location field, but the location field strips html, which lead to the div being matched with nothing and stripped from the title, thereby giving me an empty title, thereby causing me to lose the title.
[15:29:59] <cpubasic13> Oh
[15:30:11] <Stark> I laughed pretty hard
[15:30:52] <cpubasic13> I didn't even know locations did that
[15:30:55] <cpubasic13> or didn't in this case
[15:31:13] <Stark> Oh yeah, it just left it as the plain text "</div>
[15:31:14] <Stark> "
[15:31:23] <Stark> Maybe let me try that again I guess.
[15:31:38] <Stark> I'll put in some text so I don't just instantly lose it :|
[15:31:43] <cpubasic13> ok there
[15:33:20] <Stark> Oh, hey, no!
[15:33:29] <Stark> <div> is just stripped from custom titles altogether.
[15:33:42] <Stark> Even if I close it in the title.
[15:34:07] <cpubasic13> Oh wow I think that was a thing with people abusing it to the point it lagged pages. Not quite sure the story with that.
[15:34:11] <cpubasic13> It happened a while ago.
[15:34:36] <Stark> Hmm.
[15:34:52] <Stark> It's possible that it's part of editprofile functionality but not edituser functionality.
[15:35:16] <Stark> Be a dear and try to change my title to
[15:35:18] <Stark> <div class="asside">Witch
[15:35:19] <Stark> Would you?
[15:35:29] <cpubasic13> let's see
[15:35:52] <cpubasic13> haha nope
[15:36:01] <cpubasic13> it filters to <idiot class>
[15:36:03] <Stark> WOW
[15:36:05] <Stark> THAT'S GREAT
[15:36:06] <Stark> HAHA
[15:36:09] <Stark> I LOVE THAT
[15:36:17] <Stark> ... Except that it's intensely problematic.
[15:36:25] <cpubasic13> yep
[15:37:19] <Stark> Well,
[15:37:23] <Stark> Thanks for your assistance anyway.
[15:37:28] <cpubasic13> No problem.
[15:37:42] <Stark> I'm going to copy this conversation into a post, if you don't mind.
[15:37:49] <cpubasic13> no problem

:3

Actually I think I remember when people abused their custom titles like that. It was waaaaaay in the past.

---

I can't even imagine how that came up, though. I mean they could do the same thing with post layouts, right? And you see one in any situation you see the other. I guess the difference is that you can block layouts, but I think that the existence of a problematic layout would get looked at since blocking all layouts would logically be seen as a bit drastic a solution to a few people making laggy ones.

Custom titles are auto-updating. Post layouts aren't (unless you make it so in editprofile.php).

... Still... Not really... Seeing the issue? Unless someone was using a particularly bad browser and it thrashed trying to find something that was never defined. But that assumes a very specific implementation that I can't figure is terribly common.

Divs? What are these things you speak of?

<span style='display: block'> ... </span>

Implying that's not also blocked :|

Ho shit. I haven't talked to you in ages.

Good to see you made it over here. I'm liking that layout. (Reminds me I need a new one sometime, probably...)

Still a bit hard to read the sidebar text, though... would making it #000000 work?

---

I would like to style the sidebar with

padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
font-family: Palatino Linotype;
font-size: 13px;
font-style: italic;
text-shadow: -1px -1px black, 0px -1px black, 1px -1px black, 1px 0px black, 1px 1px black, 0px 1px black, -1px 1px black, -1px 0px black;
color: #E3E9F0;

But I can't, because TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH THE BOARD and its wont to strip formatting from titles.
