I just posted this post:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=36819&page=0#563612

I gave me the viz/count for the entire post being five words... is this some sort of server error that needs to be fixed?

septembern : This has to be fixed! This happened to me before with a post normally having a bunch of words (not 100+), it said there was 0 words! Thankfully, I still got my 10 Viz from the post.

I don't know or want the link to my post, sorry.

This is a very serious error, we need to track down the error that's doing it before it affects the board of vizzed!

I see that I'm not the only with this problem...

This happened me several times, It said that I've write 5 words. It ever said that.

Hmm, maybe it is just something wrong with general chat... I haven't gotten any more of these errors today as far as I know, which is good considering the majority of my posts have been 40+ words, so it's quite a wonder how this error is so widespread.

Maybe it has to do with General Chat?

It might be something with the emoticon, so I'm going to give it a try.

I think that's the emote you used... So let's see if this has fifteen words, or thirty-two.

Sorry for double post, but I was wrong, it was this one: and I don't know if the issue will work with editing.

So we're testing one more time. 

Local Mods : Feel free to ignore my word-count for these two posts.

RequiemHaunt : Alright, that's cool. Unfortunately, as you can see, the emote didn't work at all in the last post, for some reason.

I'm trying again, this time using a direct copy and paste from the FAQ. Let's see what it counts.


Edit: That's the problem. I'm gonna talk directly with Davideo about it.

I just fixed it.



It has less to do with the emoticon, and more to do with this < I think.

I once did hidden text to see if it would show words, and it didn't.

Gosh, now I can not restrain myself from seeing what will happen if I do the twice.

Feel free to remove the words for this post, but I just can't help but feel curious.


There that's twice, now let's see...

Edit: It went from what was a 40-something word post to a 16. Divided by three?

Oh I see, the word count doesn't go above 16 now no matter what I do.

septembern : No, it just stops counting at the first use of that emoticon. I would suggest for the time being that you don't use it.

I see, it must be an HTML thing. I'm not sure if it can be fixed, but it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Davideo7 : See the posts above for the situation.

Oh! I think this might have been an unintended after effect of David's changes to prevent people from using hidden text and tags to cheat the word counting thing!

Since there is no < after the > in the post, the server thinks that the whole rest of a post is in a tag.

test test test 54 words before this test test test

Okay! So if you do the emote after the first one, then the server no longer things that you are within a tag to stop counting words.

At the moment, I'm not sure how I would fix this because basically the way it's coded, it doesn't count words within html tags and if you have a < directly followed by another character, it assumes everything afterward is HTML and it doesn't count anything after that until it sees another > proceeded by another character (at least I'm pretty sure there has to be another character next to the < or > in order for it to view it as html.

The simple solution for now would be to just not use in big posts.

Ok I believe the question has been answered and the problem has been solved. I am going to close this thread down but also sticky it since people should know about this.

If this needs to be reopened I will do that.
