12 characters??

when i go to enter a post in some1s forum i get a msg saying its too short i need to legthen it to 12 characters...wtf is 12 characters??

while were on this, what is QQ also

P.S. sry i dont keep up with all the gw "slang"

You're post has to be at least 12 characters long.

12 characters. 12 letters. 12 numbers. Whatever, really. Basically it's just to prevent /signed spam, bot spam, or completely irrelevant posts.

QQ is crying. It looks like tears coming from eyes.

QQ is covered in the stickies at the top, every forum has them and they're always good to look at the first time you enter a forum.

Welcome to guru.

Theres the acronym thread.

The forum has a requirement that all posts must be twelve letters, or numbers long.

QQ=crying. I'm guessing since it looks like teardrops from a pair of eyes.



Edit:Bah I guess I was slow this time ^_^

I actually dont get the purpose of the 12 char limit... but yeah its one of guru's reqs.

The QQ tears are used because so many individuals winge and moan about something or other, so they are called QQ threads.

I always thought the 12 character limit is there to encourage you to actually post something productive/constructive/useful.

Rather than just:

lol
+1
noob

etc...

and a little more historuy-- "less QQ is key" or "QQ" or "more QQ pl0x" or whatever e-poser slang you hear these days originally became popular back when the guild Team Quitter [QQ] was at large in '06.

It was first used in the early 16th century when a French Apothecary known as Nubstradamus was aproached by a fellow frenchman who told him he did not believe his visions to be accurate, to which he replied " Well, imo your a nub and you fail.. so go QQ somewhere else" The man cried.. and QQ was born.

Eh, i got nothin better to do

WOW that was prophetic about the Nubstradamus. WOW how'd he know about year X q 69 beaing about GUILD wars. QQ why did I not think of that

LOL

Anywho just chiming in on the QQ

and the other letter thing is so that you just do not run your thread count up or something like that

since this is a thread for asking questions on guru sizzle i was wondering how do you show the skills and there icons on guildwarsguru?
