O.P. n00bs and formatting
i think the font size, type, and color should be taken out of the post thread/reply because noobs use them and half the time they dont close the tags. i know i share the same opionions as some other users and a different font is ugleh anyway. but dont take the bbcode support out cause then tochjo's congrats are useless :refuck:

[color=red][size=6][font=Arial]indeed it can be a bit annoying for a strange reason but well, i remember learning how to make a link with html (<a href='http://bleh'>Bleh</a>) and i found it so damn confusing i had to put it in a txt just so i could remember it :D

[color=green]but bbcode is pretty simple compared to that :dodgy:

[size=1]theres even a close tags button ffs :undecided:

Cant you just set it so tags are automatically shut when posting? Most of them get the idea of the start of the code, putting it at the begining. :refuck:

Maybe that would help?

RE: n00bs and formatting
maybe when u click post, there should be a pop-up saying they havent closed all of their tags, and the message may not appear as they intended it to.

A code to check that all the tags are closed and open a pop-up would be useful...I hope WDZ considers making one
