Ooookayyy... this is the best way. Type this (& # 3 2) and then remove the parenthesis and spaces . If you do it right, the spot where you typed the BB code should become a blank space when you post it. The reason I tell you to remove the parenthesis and the spaces is if I just typed it normally, it wouldn't show up because that's literally BB code for a space. Now you make you extremely short post... and then press the spacebar until you think you've reached 30 characters. Type ( ) and remove the parenthesis... so that your post comes out without obeying the 30 character rule. You can also make a blank post by typing ( ) at the beginning and ( ) at the end separated by spaces.
