I see. Would encoding it as "%2B" in the request fix that?

I'm not complaining this time, I'm just curious.

They're not actually sanitized, per se. The plus symbol over HTTP is a space, so when the newly posted comment pops up, the + is converted in the AJAX request to a space. Despite that fact, the comment actually contains the +, which is evident if you reload the page.

How come the plus symbol is sanitized from comments on first post but is allowed during an edit?

Here's a very simple comment I made earlier that's exhibiting the behavior when quoted. Maybe it will help you narrow it down.

It's there because you quoted my comment which included an "@Lawdeedaw".

In reply to this comment by Lawdeedaw:
Um, where is the "@" symbol in the comment? I always wondered why that happened... (I didn't add a symbol that I know of...)

In reply to this comment by xxovercastxx:
^take the "@" out of your comment and it'll work properly

Well that's odd. As late as 4 minutes after I called nochannel and subsequent invocations, it was still showing as in the channels I removed it from.

Not sure what you mean. Siftbot seems to be responding appropriately:

Channel assignments invocations have ceased working, at least on this video:

Don't know if it has anything to do with the tag war that's taking place there.

It ain't just me. It seems to have started 3 days ago...

Well there's no line breaks in the code as copied from youtube. I pasted it into notepad to confirm and tried submitting it a third time and it got split up again.



...and yet it works fine here. I am still using the same clipboard contents I used in my third *backup attempt.

That just can't be. Embed codes in comments aren't manipulated by siftbot or anything. Can you paste for me the embed code you're trying to use?

In reply to this comment by xxovercastxx:
VS is inserting those line breaks.

In reply to this comment by lucky760:
The embed code can't be split across multiple lines. Remove all the line breaks and it'll work.

In reply to this comment by xxovercastxx:
I think *backup might be broken. I tried 2 different embeds here and got no reaction from siftbot either time.

Evil clone?

My interpretation of 1sttube is that it's for clips from television, so I would not include this. Just my interpretation, though.

I assume 80s was there for the SNES itself, but that launched in the 90s.

In reply to this comment by Truckchase:
Hey OC; this vid isn't an actual video game but a remake of the real TV theme song in a SNES style. I figured this would still qualify for 1sttube because of that fact. Do you figure that it doesn't since it didn't actually air on TV? I could see that too... just trying to get clarification. Thx!

No! Must have shiny!

Sorry, the other features took up so much time I totally forgot about that. The icons look awesome the way they are though

No icons with improved shininess?
