Extra! postings with CC>CC vs CC&GTCC

Ever wonder why when you type CC&GTCC on the Chip Board you get CC>CC??

That's because the computer language used to run the Chip Board interprets the ampersand "&" followed by letters as a character not "&". An "&" followed by the letters GT [greater than] gives you the > symbol. If you want to have an & character appear in the middle of CC_GTCC you need the add letters AMP [ampersand] after the "&" ie. CC_&_GTCC" (remove the two underlines).

You can use the "&" anywhere in the message as an "&" as long that it's not followed by letters.

You can also use the formatted shortcut *_cc_* (remove the two underlines) = ccgtcc

If you were curious I hope this helps.
