In additon, why does the PM system add the / any time that a ' is used(IE can't becomes can/'t). And why can't we use enters? I elimates all enters and bunches it all into one long block of text. It really sucks when you ask your officer to send you their attack logs on something.
I remember these questions being answered long ago, but I can't find where, and don't remember the reasons. I don't know MySQL or Javascript, so if it's coding I guess that's why I don't know.

it's not just a mysql thing... it's all to prevent people from entering code either intentionally or inadvertantly in PMs that could A. screw up the database or output of webpage, or B. be used to insert malicious code inot a page. It's definitly fixable, but the amount of code to do so most likely exceeds the code of the entire SGW game.
