Problem with the forums.
« on: May 26, 2008, 04:56:00 pm »

I know this doesn't necessarily belong on this board, but it's the closest match.

Anyway, I was trying to figure out what it means when x( )x surrounds an item, and I ran a search for it, which turned up a regex error.

It was no big deal, I made a topic for the question instead, but I figured it might need to be called to the attention of Toady or whoever runs the forums.

Damage.  Wear and tear.
first
x( )x
then
X( )X
then
xx( )xx
then
XX( )XX

(Not entirely sure about the middle two, but that's what I'm sure it is)

Not quite.  There's also xX( )Xx, as the penultimate state of decay.

Ah... Thanks for the answers, but I actually already asked that in the questions forum. >.<

This topic was just to point out that you can't search for that sort of thing.
