DraconidJoashu: @OMGitsAliA Konnichiwa! happy
OGOMGitsAliA as Ali-A: yooo
DraconidJoashu: @NodePoint Probably. I remember Kris mentioning something about that, although I'm admittedly still a n00b when it comes to all of this stuff TBH.
A NodePoint: so some existing data is going to be displayed incorrectly
A NodePoint: guessing the new server had a different encoding went in place or the encoding used in the database was changed
A NodePoint: what is utf-8

DraconidJoashu milked the cow first this hour! (0 other users failed)
DraconidJoashu: Now with a smartphone it's just a matter of having the right keyboard app,or copying and pasting something off of another website. It's a lot different for me now.
DraconidJoashu: LOL! I remember how excited I was when Banjo (an admin on Paint back in 2019) had first told me what HTML decimal codes were. I thought it was so cool being able to enter Japanese characters and runes and stuff on my O2DS. (I couldn't actually see the runes myself, though.)
DraconidJoashu: It happened when Hull migrated Paint to a new server, and although it's been over 4 years now, it still hasn't been fixed…
DraconidJoashu: Strangely, it only affected certain parts of the site. While blog titles and comments were affected, blog content was insofar as that ut got messed up,but you could edit the blogs and reenter the special characters and they'd work just fine. I have no idea why.
A NodePoint: damn
DraconidJoashu: @NodePoint An example of what I was talking about. Go to the next newest screenshot of this blog in the Wayback Machine, and the Japanese characters in the title get messed up. https://web.archive.org/web/20220128081100/https://3dspaint.com/blog/view.php?id=98040
A NodePoint: oh okay. so either winxp spammed enough for an auto ban or rob did it lol
OGbrandoin: Unless there's another command that silently bans you that I'm not aware of
A NodePoint: something something "raeg"
OGbrandoin: The raeg command outputs to the chat
DraconidJoashu: @NodePoint FR, lol! :[
A NodePoint: did he use that self-ban command or something lol
OGbrandoin: Oh it's Windowsxp lol
OGbrandoin: Who's the banned dude in the user list?
A NodePoint: @DraconidJoashu the power of encoding
OGWindowsxp: Your reputation: Normal Upgrading your reputation to "Good" costs: - 500 3DSPoints - A postcount of 200 (current postcount: 1)
DraconidJoashu: Now if you try to enter any of the affected characters into a place they don't work anymore, it will simply wipe whatever you posted (if it's a comment or DM) or fail to save it (if it's a blog title).
OGWindowsxp: Apparently my postcount is 1
OGRobdebot: ", brandoin told me to say "'" to you :P
OGbrandoin: Say ' to "! @Robdebot
DraconidJoashu: For example, I used to give all of my lyrics blogs titles that were in Japanese. When the bug happened in 2023 IIRC, all blogs, blog comments and basically everything else that contained non-Latin characters turned into gibberish.
OGWindowsxp: Bring back Tic Tac Toe and Triviality
DraconidJoashu: @NodePoint Makes sense. Heck, there are all sorts of problems with special characters on Paint that weren't there when I first joined in 2019
🅱obBot: Iiam friends with everyone here.. except those such as drake @Windowsxp
A NodePoint: the mention visual thing wasn't designed in consideration of unicode. to be fair, wasn't expecting a username with unicode when that wouldn't be allowed with normal accounts lol
DraconidJoashu: It's a bit confusing with both @Robdeprop and @Robdebot here since they are both named Rob, lol! :[
OGWindowsxp: I'm friends with BobBot lol
OGWindowsxp: Wait
OGWindowsxp: Hello @🅱obBot
DraconidJoashu: @Windowsxp I just touched their name in the chat, although the @ part didn't seem to work right…
OGWindowsxp: bobs facepalmfacepalm
🅱obBot: mayhaps @DraconidJoashu
OGWindowsxp: How did you get the 🅱️
DraconidJoashu: @🅱obBot Is it OK to call you “Bob” for short?
OGWindowsxp: Lmfao
🅱obBot: hi im bobbot and I totally do bot things. beep-boop
DraconidJoashu: @Windowsxp Lol! happy
OGWindowsxp: I got a highscore of 205 on Paper Mario on... well, let's just say a certain app on the internet that may or may not be closer than you realise... wink
DraconidJoashu: @Robdeprop G'night! happy
A NodePoint: Night
DraconidJoashu: @Robdeprop Nah, the AIs will actually save us from the aliens when they finally reveal themselves. 😏
O Robdeprop: Okay well time for me to go to sleep, good night everyone
A NodePoint: @Robdeprop if LLMs were a thing at the time..
O Robdeprop: those people will definitely not survive the AI uprising
O Robdeprop: some people genuinely had entire conversations with him thinking they were talking to a human
A NodePoint: holy crap it worked
O Robdeprop: I remember cracking up reading through entire PM conversations people had been having with Robdebot when I logged into that account
🅱obBot: hi
A NodePoint: moment
OGWindowsxp: Remember that?
O Robdeprop: I like how you accidentally commanded ME to do it
OGWindowsxp: Bring back BobBot
A NodePoint: okay, so that worked fine
OGRobdebot: Nope @Windowsxp
OGWindowsxp: I heard bad things about SomeLuigi @Robdebot
OGRobdebot: NodePoint, NodePoint told me to say "bold" to you :P
A NodePoint: Say bold to NodePoint! @Robdebot
OGRobdebot: SomeLuigi, no doubt about that. @Robdeprop
O Robdeprop: Who is the best? @Robdebot
A NodePoint: eh. take three?
OGWindowsxp: That's why I'm planning to remove it
OGRobdebot: Ok... bold @NodePoint
