Auto-Formatting?
 
Sorry if this has already been said before, but one feature I'd love would be auto-formatting for posts. If you're in a fast paced thread and like to add different fonts or colours (which I usually do) it can be rather time consuming, not a lot, but still.

I don't know how viable this is to happen, just thought I'd put in my two cents on this.

That would be nice. It may sounds silly to some, but I think it's be really useful.

As long as some sort of "guard" were to be put in place, so someone can't include text as part of their format.

Vexatious~Venom 10-11-2010 06:54 PM

Though technically, you wouldn't gain gold for your format anyway, so adding text in wouldn't be of benefit to anyone. But yes, I see what you mean. There is probably something that could make only BBcode recogniseable or something.


KiwiRose 10-11-2010 07:37 PM

Yeah, that' what I mean.

Solia has post formatting, but you can format it with text, pictures and BBCode. That's what I was mentioning the no text thing. So yeah, BBCode only. ^_~

Vexatious~Venom 10-11-2010 08:04 PM

Yeah I was thinking that was what you were meaning.

Ah, I didn't know Solia had an autoformatter.

I know that one was created for Crysandrea, but I think that one isn't actually coded into the site...not entirely sure though.

I think Mene did have that at one point but the gold system was being abused. I could be wrong though. I agree that it would be useful and I would use a coloured font if I did not have to fix it every time I post.

Jesmond 10-11-2010 10:02 PM

Mystic: No auto-formatter, they just used to have gold gain for formatting in general so used of BB Code in general would be abuse.

I wouldn't use it (considering I never really format my posts) but I can see this being very useful for many members. *nodnod*

i would love that... I'm too lazy to pick it every time so that would make me use colors more

There was a feature that came with this software that almost auto-formatted, it only covered font colour or something though if I remember correctly (which I don't). I know Ken disabled it but I can't remember why, I think it just didn't work properly. I know it was only available for a very short period of time before it got turned off.

So I'm not crazy. XD I thought I remembered something that wasn't around for too long. It would be nice if it was brought back if it's possible.
