New Thread Experience Testing Thread

I think there's 2 or 3 of us now making test posts in https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=7411831 trying to work out what is going on with a few particular bugs we're encountering.

I thought it might be slightly less "rude" to people reading that thread if I made a separate thread for us to poke around in.

[start] So what does the {start} tag do, anyhow? [/start]
[start]Hello [start]Goodbye[/start]
Are you still here?

So, having two open {start} tags and only one close {/start} messes things up. I still don't know what {start} does though.
Is it anything inside square brackets I wonder...?

[myCrazyTag]In 1 tag [myCrazyTag] in 2 tags [/myCrazyTag]out of the 2nd tag

For anyone wondering, the previous post contained the following (with square brackets):

{myCrazyTag}In 1 tag {myCrazyTag} in 2 tags {/myCrazyTag}out of the 2nd tag

and failed to render. So it's not specific tags, it's anything in square brackets.

3<x does that mess things up?

test <axxx seems to mess up when you try and edit it. Not sure whether its just < or <a or <x or <axxx

It seems to be < followed immediately (no space) by an alphabetic character. <4 is OK, but <y is not.

Note - testing swear filter / asterisking out swear words under the new system. I'm not typing any actual swear words, just asterisking them out. Spoilered anyhow.
