I'm bored. So i'm going to test my Quote-Box Theory: The theory of overlapping quotes. In this theory, the Quote boxes of AH Forums can be, in fact, inside eachother, and that using them as such will help everyone in their quoting methods. The only problem in the theory is the limit of quote boxes per page. But I will get to that later.

First, i will test it. I will make ,lets say, 6 quotes, inside eachother. and in my hypothosis, I won't get an error message and it will work smoothly. I will now test my theory.









Test

As you can see, my theory is right. No error message, and it looks great.
But now, time to test how many quote boxes you can have in 1 post, without crashing your computer...
I'm guessing... 11. Test SUCESS!!!! :D

(1 minute earlier) I just tried 12.. and BOOM! "This program is not responding".

So, in conclusion: 11 is the definate limit of quote boxes in 1 AH Forum post. So if you ever need to post 12 quotes inside eachother(for who knows what reason, other than to try my theory) DON'T DO IT!!!!!! You will loose all that you typed.

Thank you. :) :)

Thank you for this scientific breakthrough DX! I was about to post with 12 quotes inside eachother, so your years of hard work just saved my computer from breaking down!

And please don't worry. Researchers should never be punished! What we do in democracies is raise some money and give them their own playground, so they can do their "work" while the effects on society are reduced to a minimum.

Maybe we all could throw in an dime and give you your own board. Wouldn't it be great to have your own "Prof. Dr. DXfoxman useless knowledge board" on this site? :D

I'm going to test if the same limit to multiple quotes embedded within a quote. Here goes (4 layers deep)

Another (7 layers deep)

I'm going to test if the same limit to multiple quotes embedded within a quote. Here goes

Apparently it can handle up to eleven levels of multiple embedded quotes as well.

Whoa.... 27??!?!?!?!!

I guess the amount of quote boxes depends, maybe , on the quality of your computer. Or maybe series just has majical powers to overide it. Either way, i guess i'm wrong.

Once you reach 2,000 posts, you get special priveledges... like magic.

But you lose some priveledges... like spellcheck.

Weird. 27. Maybe the internet activity is more at 11:30 in the evening. because my computer crahed posting 12!


(minutes later) I just tried 50. And I counted it, and it was 27. So, i guess 27 is the most that AH lets you have. Can anyone else get more than 27?

I think only 27 are visible, but the others are there. Either way, prepare to be slayed!

Now if we could just get some animation effects going...like alternating colors or something! No need for mind-altering substances then!

Oh, and I do have a job...I'm a software developer. I'm in between projects at my office so I have some time everyday to do stuff like this. Besides, with copy and paste, it was quick.

Lol, screw drugs. Quote boxes are all I need.
Also, you can add fun hidden messages. For example:
