[defenseless old man]

Hello, I have tried everthing posted in the forums, checked alliedassault.com and various other resources, and still cannot get my message of the day to display properly.

Instead of "Press fire to join the battle!", this is what we'd like displayed:

Through me is the way into the suffering city/
Through me is the way to the eternal pain/
Through me is the way that runs among the lost./
Justice moved my lofty maker,/
I was forged by the divine Power,/
The supreme Wisdom, and the primal Love./
Before me were no things created,/
Save the eternal, and eternal I shall endure./
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here./

These are the Gates of Hell. The battle awaits.

I don't think that this is too long, but that might be the problem. I have tried cutting it down to only 4 lines, used \n to make the new lines, etc, but nothing has seemed to work thus far. It still keeps cutting parts off, and adds a ? to the end. I've seen servers with really long MOTD's, so I don't think that's the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
