Does anyone know how the text that changes constantly works?
There's this funny thing I see on forums from time to time. Basically somebody posts something and there's a message that changes constantly. I did some research and it led me to this symbol:
§
Which appears to do nothing
How exactly does this work?
Is there something I'm missing?

I believe that symbol is a silcrow? idk what the syntax is on different forums for the constantly changing messages

I think the likelihood of someone knowing it would be higher on the phpBB community forum: https://www.phpbb.com/community/

Like the words are changing in front of your face as you look at the post?
I'm not sure what you're describing here.

You know the glitchy Minecraft text at the end of the game? If you type §k and then add letters (e.g. §Kai’s;kldjsda;d) it goes through all of the letters at hyperspeed.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Fri Sep 27, 2024 4:22 pmWhat do you mean "changes constantly"?DiplomacyandWarfare wrote: ↑Fri Sep 27, 2024 12:52 pmThere's this funny thing I see on forums from time to time.

Re: Does anyone know how the text that changes constantly works?
Am I missing something? I just see a bunch of random characters. I'm not seeing anything move or change. Does it make a difference if I'm using dark mode?

I just changed from dark mode. Nothing changed, except now i see Dargorygel has a different name color than everyone else.BaronVonRichthofen wrote: ↑Fri Oct 04, 2024 2:31 amAm I missing something?

Seems pretty obvious to me even in dark mode, although it appears to be a darker shade of the same color.

Can you link to an example of the moving text you are talking about?DiplomacyandWarfare wrote: ↑Fri Oct 04, 2024 12:06 pmSeems pretty obvious to me even in dark mode, although it appears to be a darker shade of the same color.
This thread still makes zero sense.

Maybe there is no text, and this is all a lie.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Fri Oct 04, 2024 6:38 pmCan you link to an example of the moving text you are talking about?DiplomacyandWarfare wrote: ↑Fri Oct 04, 2024 12:06 pmSeems pretty obvious to me even in dark mode, although it appears to be a darker shade of the same color.
