Hi,

I typed in the following text, which resulted in a webserver crash at a xenforo-site, I'm regularly using (as user).

I put the text here as image, so not to crash this board as well:

xenforo_crash_cause.png


I used that - like I did regularly within a phpBB Board, to have the code-Tags printed as-is so the it is beeing show to the other person. The Unicode-ZeroWidth Character is entered with the following Key-Sequence:
  • [Ctrl] + [Shift] +
    [*]"2", "0", "0", "b"
    [*][Enter]

Regards,
Tobias
 
I mean you're only a user on the site so how do you know it was this that caused it? The site owner needs to check server logs really.

Unless you can reproduce this and it crashes every time you try and post it.

Please use
Code:
 ...
and not ... for Code within Posts!
 
You can have the owner request support if needed, but this is likely a server issue of some sort.

Also, you should use [plain] tags for this purpose:

[plain][code]...[/code][/plain]
[code]...[/code]
