gollark: NEVER!
gollark: Formats:- decimal (-115280918250, 140105)- base64-encoded number (weird, begins with p or n to indicate sign)- RLE-encoded whatever (begins with r, contains pairs of base36-encoded number of repetitions and character)
gollark: Technically they're *all* numbers.
gollark: Well, it tries to encode them in the shortest possible format.
gollark: And you *can* do just raw decimal, but then the comments will be wrong, because the comment system is kind of tacked on and works directly on the URLs.
