A fun test at anoter stie who will remain nameless. HTML in boards is fun! But also could cause a lot of havoc, I see. Still, if i ever make forums, I would concider leaving it on.

Another site that shall remain nameless huh?

I wonder if the name of that site is after the www and before the .com in the link in your first post. Hmmm, I wonder. lol :laughing:

closest I could come up w/ it..

This is really funny.. I kinda wish that AGN had html in it, but the boards would be so screwed up it wouldn't even be funny...

For a vBulletin like this, you could only safely turn on HTML if you trusted everyone on the board not to abuse it. (It's easy to wreak havoc with HTML tags; think what would happen if you were allowed to insert </HTML> into your post.) This would be roughly the equivalent of everyone on the board being a moderator.

Note that this would mean that you would have to deny, or at least moderate, new memberships; otherwise, new, untrusted members could join. So AGN won't be turning on HTML anytime soon.

Don't double post, inori. :-p

HTML would be a baaad thing here. It's fine without it.

I don't see a double post by inori unless he deleted the extra post :P.

vB code here is enough to accomplish what we need to in a message :).
