In the shout box, sometimes people have an * in front of their name, and sometimes not?

Been a while since I used it.
But it is a third person comment.
entered by starting the post with

It will make the post red as well as add the * in front of the name.

thanks!

I had the same question quite a while back. I was testing it here ad SD had some fun with me. Due to the shout was not in a third person point of view.
But I was having fun with the text being red.

But anyway it is just one of those hidden things we can do with the shout box. Like inserting a gramelin.

what other hidden things are there?
in that screenshot pic, where did the LIKE/thumbs up come from?

I'm guessing, but I suspect that the 'LIKE' is a graemlin on that board.

you guess correct and win......

um...

nothing, but the fact that you are correct

That'll do for me
It's not often the case...

I never had the box checked to enable the gremlins....I just enabled them.
Where are they found now?

well, I think all I did was expand the list.

If I wanted to add to the list whats the best way, and place to find new gremlins?
