How do I do an exact word search? I was trying to find a word that is also the start of another word, but I don’t want the partial matches. Using quotes didn’t work.

Does this help in any way? Not perfectly sure what you are trying to do/find and perhaps this site is not what you need. But I have found it very useful over the years for doing partial word searches where only some letters are known.

Maybe it refers to being a veteran of one of the Badass games that were played here a few years ago. I don’t have that title although I played one of them (Badass Dragoons of the Highlands), so it may have been created for a more recent game.

Not quite what I meant. The exact search I wanted was “fema”, but it was hitting “female”, which I did not want. I did manage to find the comment I wanted to reply to by scrolling back enough and guessing correctly on the thread.

"fema " looks like it works for that example, though might miss things with punctuation immediately after.

Has something changed? When i hover over the cursor, it used to give me the option to paste from from clipboard. Now it gives me “dictionary” or “read aloud.” I can’t find a way to post a link or one-box.

Here’s everything you should need to know about searching in Discourse:
Lots of options I’ve never used.

What OS and browser?
I’m not clear what exactly you’re trying to do, but as you can see in the post above I was able to paste link which was correctly oneboxed.

Thanks.
You need quotes and spaces after/before the quotes? That’s an odd one 
. Hopefully I’ll remember that the next time I need it.

Ah. Stupid me. You meant here.
D’oh!
(Should have put brain in gear and realised what thread I was in.)
I can do it as usual on a chrome browser on my work computer, but on my phone (Android, using the app) it gives me that dictionary or read aloud option. Only started doing that yesterday. I have no idea.

I think you never joined the group.
Once you’re a member of the group, you can add (or remove) the title in your preferences, here:
I removed the title for myself (since I never played the game), but I kind of like that flair. I don’t see any way to remove oneself from this group.

I believe if you click the smaller image you can still get it full size, so should just be the display size.

How come sometimes when someone’s post is quoted, clicking on the “expand” arrow (the upside-down caret thing) doesn’t expand the quoted post? I find this happening a lot.
Example: a post I just made, quoting a post by Mindy. Is it because the content of Mindy’s post is just a link/one-box? Or is it some other reason?
Screenshot of Mindy’s whole post:
My quote of Mindy looks like this:
Clicking the expand arrow does nothing but change the arrow/caret direction, and doesn’t expand the quote:
I wound up re-posting the link that Mindy posted, in order to show the one-box, even though the system warned me that someone else had already posted that link.
Is there something that I should/could have done, in order to have Mindy’s content show up in my quote of Mindy’s post?
