Any other things this could possibly be used for, other then just getting people disconect? Would this help with some kind of duping method?

oh wow... none of you have ever programmed in C...

It's not a built in value of WoW... It's called an escape character, its purpose it to represent non-printable characters inside of C code. For example "hello\n" is used to represent "hello" followed by a return.

The reason it crashes WoW is because WoW is not expecting a return in a single line string... so it has no clue how to deal with it. Hence why it crashes you and not everyone else. The second the client runs into it, it bugs out.

Type /macro to open your macro window. Make a new macro with the following text:

/script SendChatMessage("To hear your fortune, pst with ' \\\197\132ostradamus ' in the message.", "WHISPER", this.language, UnitName("target"))
/script SendChatMessage("That's: BACKSLASH-nostradamus", "WHISPER", this.language, UnitName("target"))

Then target someone and activate the macro. It will pst them with this:
"To hear your fortune, pst with '\ńostradamus' in the message."
"That's: BACKSLASH-nostradamus"


OR! To play on their greed, try this macro:

/script SendChatMessage("For free gold, pst with ' \\\197\132uggets ' in the message.", "WHISPER", this.language, UnitName("target"))
/script SendChatMessage("That's: BACKSLASH-nuggets", "WHISPER", this.language, UnitName("target"))

When you activate this macro, it will pst your target with the following:
"For free gold, pst with '\ńuggets' in the message."
"That's: BACKSLASH-nuggets"

Works for me. That second one is great for getting rid of gold beggars.

I have been putting this to good use to log off quickly. The whole "20 seconds til log off" is way too long.

I wasn't planning on becoming a 'poster', but once I saw this thread I wanted to slit my wrists. Thank you, 42foxfire42... you made me regain my sanity.

Guys, it's not \nice that does it... it's simply \n

anytime there is a forwardslash and an N right after it it'll cause you to D/C

there is some glitch that blizzard didn't fix that cuases this
