Yeah I just use /me, but it doesn't work on the same line. It has to be put on a new line, otherwise you have to use [nobbc][me][/me][nobbc].

And it has a nasty habit of combining all line breaks before and after into a single break...

That sucks X.x

On a side note, I think in the first post later I'll append some info about news on the front page, such as what is the difference between articles written in black or brown and if it's possible to contribute to news as well as our policies.

Yeong you hold down the Alt key on your keyboard and press the number combination using the numpad. Then you release the Alt key and it types an unicode character in the text area you are typing in.

Alt+7. Never, ever do that on IRC.

The small round char? Yeah that's annoying on some clients. I even had to disallow it in the rules because it made people computer beep and it got seriously annoying.

What do you mean? Do you mean pressing it? You need to press 7 on the numpad, not the number keys above the letters and below the F keys.

Yep, and if you use a laptop, it's usually Alt+Fn+7.

And when he says that he means the seven that's the alternate seven in the letters, not the one above the letters.

Oh wait, do laptops even have a numpad? I never used one much.
