I wonder if this works on other sites? (Remove/Change )

It appears to be possible to quote the entire page by repeating that several times. I guess it leaves <div> and <blockquote> elements open and then autofills the closing tags in the wrong places.

Here, I'll fix it:

Aidan, could you fix your ultra quote? Now you can't even see replies and the post reply button. Also, a few more ones eith unique effects popped up.
Appart from Aidan Mode, there is now:
-Saka Quote
-Daniel Mode
-Aidan Superquote
We should write descriptions for these:
-Adian Mode: A combination of url, wiki, and code tags that leaves the page shaterred in pieces. Future replies are large and centered, making the page look somewhat old-ish.
-Saka Quote: A combination of a dilluted Aidan Mode and quotes, leaves an open div and blockquote that quotes the entire message and signature. Enough can quote entire pages.
-Daniel Mode: A derivative of Aidan Mode that adds code tags and pushes things around rather than scrambling them around. Pushes bottom bar to the side. Signature gets coded.
-Aidan Superqoute: The most lethal of all. The Aidan Superquote is a broken superquote made of lots of Saka Quotes, not normally allowed on the forums by software. Leaves the rest of the page white and quotes. Replies and post reply button become invisible.

I would not like new users playing with this. I'll write articles on my userpage.

I actually laughed at the terminology.

"IT'S TIME FOR MY ULTIMATE ATTACK. I, A FOR AWESOME, WILL NOW PRESENT: THE AIDAN SUPERQUOTE" shoots out lasers

There's actually a bug like this on XKCD Forums. Something about custom tags and phpBB. Anyways,

Here's another one. It pushes the avatar down all the way to the signature bar. Let's name it...
-Fluffykitty Pusher
Unless we know your real name that's going to be it lel. It's also interesting that it makes a code tag with purple text.

Screenshot?
New one yay.
-Adian Bomb: The smallest ultra-page breaker. Leaks into the bottom and pushes the pages button, post reply, and new replies to the side.

Someone should create a phpBB-based forum so we can experiment without mucking about with the forums.

oh my, i want to quote somebody and now i have to look in a diffrent scrollbar to type this. intersting thing, though, is that it's never impossible to fully hide the entire page -- it will always be in a nested scrollbar.
EDIT: oh also, the thing above is kinda bad. not horrible though -- i'd put it at a 1/13 on the broken scale.

Don't worry about this post, it's just gonna push conversation to the next page so I can test something while actually being able to see it. (The testing grounds in the sandbox crashed golly)
