I think we should add the following to the validation of thread titles:
if(preg_match('#\bhelp\b|\burgent\b|!)#i', $title) { die("The fact that you are behind schedule does not make it my emergncy. Please use a meaningful title without any histrionics."); }
:p
I think we should ban the user that posted this! ;-)
I'd issue an infraction if I could find the icon :mad:
Actually, I might relent and allow the word "help", just not if followed by a "!". Plus I suppose we should allow for "!=" in a programming forum.
if(preg_match('#\bhelp!\b|\burgent\b|!(?!=))#i', $title)

But those would only pass the test v0.2 if they were "help?!=!=!=!=!=" or "HELP PLZ!=!=!=!=!=".
what about...
HAAaALLLpPPP MEEEEAAAEaeaaAA11!!!!1111!??!?!11
come on... give me some regex loving! haha!!!
if(substr_count($subject, '!') >= 3)
Or five, but no-one got the reference last time, so....
Very true. Bob only knows why they're not (always) counted as "identical posts within the last five minutes". vBulletin's ajax just isn't thread/tab-safe?
