Post by: Quickseller on April 01, 2016, 03:05:04 AM for me, in the b itcoin discussion sub, anytime b itcoin is used it is showing up upside down and backwards.

But Is there only this one prank this year? Or do you guys noticed something else besides upped down uᴉoɔʇᴉq word? Holy crap was this good. It even effects some URL's. I was headed over to meta to see if forum or I had been compromised.... got my heart to beat fast lol. Well done to all who came up with this. Title: Re: ??? Huge problem with the word 'uᴉoɔʇᴉq' in titles/threads going on right now??? Post by: Quickseller on April 01, 2016, 03:20:33 AM lol, if you use the plural of BTCitcoin (BTCcoins) then it will show up as "moondollars"
haha April fools.....last year theymos re-enabled avatars only to have everyone's show up as funny memes. Title: Re: ??? Huge problem with the word 'uᴉoɔʇᴉq' in titles/threads going on right now??? Post by: theymos on April 01, 2016, 03:23:25 AM for me, in the b itcoin discussion sub, anytime b itcoin is used it is showing up upside down and backwards. When I quote uᴉoɔʇᴉq it displays properly. Sounds like your coins are a bit out of whack today. Note that these wordfilters do not actually modify posts directly, but if you edit or quote a post, whatever's in the text box will be what's saved. This is disabled in some sections to avoid too much confusion. It also doesn't appear for logged-out users. I don't know much about altcoins, so I mainly just mangled the names of the top (AFAIK) several altcoins. If I missed any major ones, or if people have better ideas for replacement names, let me know. Title: Re: ??? Huge problem with the word 'uᴉoɔʇᴉq' in titles/threads going on right now???

But Is there only this one prank this year? Or do you guys noticed something else besides upped down uᴉoɔʇᴉq word? I figured it out right away. theymos has been dipping in too much of fermented WS cheese. I was not right away. This was first one I saw as I am on it so much. I did not realize it was April Fools. I really did think forum or I was compromised. It was a good one.... but scary. Best joke / scare I have had in quite a long time. Title: Re: ??? Huge problem with the word 'uᴉoɔʇᴉq' in titles/threads going on right now??? Post by: orryde on April 01, 2016, 02:26:09 PM It took me a good 5 seconds to work it out, I'm with everyone else, its a good prank.

Post by: jacee on April 01, 2016, 02:59:35 PM Actually the word "b i t c o i n" is completely being shown normally on thread titles on my mobile I'm using chrome. It will only look upside down when I click the thread and every b i t c o i n word will start showing upsde down. It was actually kind of funny because everyone is assuming that there is something wrong with the forum.
Title: Re: ??? Huge problem with the word 'uᴉoɔʇᴉq' in titles/threads going on right now??? Post by: Junko on April 01, 2016, 03:05:16 PM Haha, good one. I figured it was an April Fool's joke, but I thought it might have been done by some outsider hacking the site and having a laugh.

It is weird, I'm using chrome on my android and the word bitcoin is still looks upside down on both thread's title and post. I thought it was only a problem on my browser but seems that all members facing the same. Just curious what is happening actually.. |
