How does the 'mask' tag work? Does it stop G00gle? |

@Larson : Yep. BTW: there's no need to l33t 'google'. When I Google 'google' I get:

Please use the Mask tag sparingly. Many of our forums are behind the log-in so Google will usually not pick it up. When you do use it, only mask the most unique words. Masking an entire introductory email from Prof. Soludo, for example, is pointless as there are millions of those. |

I heard that breaks the internet.
Now, is it better to mask a whole post instead of a few seperate words? |

No, that's useless, just mask a lad's name or an email addy you don't want to be found by search engines. It consumes a lot of unnecessary database space as I learned, that's why we're asked to use it economically. |

This is what would happen if the entire post was masked. Looks funny don't it? Well that didn't work well did it? It just turned green...
edit-text unmasked to save server space. As you see from following posts, it makes a lot of stuff ya don't really want clogging things up. The text will turn green when masked, however. Please do not just "check it out" and turn your text green for fun. L33ting is better! |

The reason why we don't mask entire posts is because it takes up server resources. If you look at the source code for badgerbait's post, it says:
Code: |
<script type="text/javascript">document.write(decode64('VGhpcyBpcyB3aGF0IHdvdWxkIGhhcHBlbiBpZiB0aGUgZW50a
XJlIHBvc3Qgd2FzIG1hc2tlZC4gTG9va3MgZnVubnkgZG9uJ3QgaXQ/'))</script></span> Well that didn't work well did it? It just turned green... |
As you can see, the first part of his post doesn't take much more room than the original, if any. Anyhow, regardless of this, database space is never really an issue - storage space is cheap. The masked bits are encoded in base64, and the server has to decode it every time somebody loads the page. If a whole post was coded and lots of people tried to view it, it would take an incredible amount of server resources. Its safe from Google as obviously, "VGhpcyBpcyB3aGF0IHdvdWxkIGhhcHBlbiBpZiB0aGUgZW50aXJlIHBvc3Q
gd2FzIG1hc2tlZC4gTG9va3MgZnVubnkgZG9uJ3QgaXQ/" means nothing to Google.

Thanks for a nice clear visual explanation of the mask feature, lareneg! As a complete computer 'tard, I needed that.

@lareneg: that explanation makes perfect sense to me too, I didn't know it was the encoding-decoding taking up system resources. |

I didn't understand it. I just know Mask runs the batteries down, so we must use it sparingly.
Leet ONE letter in a name, that's enough to stop the Googlebots. |

A quick analogy to help you understand: Imagine if somebody 1337ed one word in a whole page of text for you. Not too bad to decode it - you'd be able to read the passage out loud. What if somebody 1337ed the whole page of text for you? You'd struggle to read that straight off the page. That's essentially what the server has to do if somebody masks a whole post.
It is my understanding the arguement is that it can be hard for some people to read 1337ified text, especially if they use screen readers. If people only mask the few words that are necessary, there should be no noticeable effect on the system resources. Its only if lots of people started masking whole posts that it would start making the server groan. |

I am against leeting in almost all circumstances. I hate it and will avoid reading it, if I can. The need to change every vowel to something else gives me a headache.
I don't mind Roy's example, if needed. Sus@n for Susan. But then I have to ask, why not just change Susan's name to Dora?
I just was happy someone explained something technical (how the mask feature works) in a way I understood it. And that so rarely happens for me! |
