I found some BBCode that I would find really helpful to be added on the Forum. I have examples of how they would appear for clarification

Suggestions:
  • — Plain Text[/B]
    Disables BB code translation on the wrapped text[SPOILER][CENTER][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/hm9dpOd.png[/IMG][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/jRM8Po8.png[/IMG][/CENTER][/SPOILER]

    [*][B][FIELDSET] — [BBM]Fieldset[/B]
    This BB Code is used to display an article[SPOILER][CENTER][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/gGMJzuw.png[/IMG][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/yl5C964.png[/IMG][/CENTER][/SPOILER]

    [*][B][BG] — Background[/B]
    Sets a background color. Basically a highlighter[SPOILER]Will Edit Later[/SPOILER]

    [*][B][DSCROL] — Div Scroll[/B]
    Makes a section of text scrollable[SPOILER]Will Edit Later[/SPOILER]

    [*][B][DU] — Double Underline[/B]
    An underline beneath an underline[SPOILER]Will Edit Later[/SPOILER]

    [*][B][SPACER] — Spacer[/B]
    Paragraph space. Indents the first line of a paragraph.[SPOILER]Will Edit Later[/SPOILER]

    [*][B][SLIDER] — [BBM] SLIDER[/B]

This is all up to Zise and V but most of these have no use. These would just waste space imo.

— Plain Text
Disables BB code translation on the wrapped text.
[/QUOTE]
what is the point. It has nothing valuable to offer

[QUOTE]
[O] — Overline
Puts a line over text. Opposite of underline[/QUOTE]
We don't need this. We already have this code

[PHP][STRIKE][/STRIKE][/PHP]

[STRIKE]hello[/STRIKE]

[QUOTE][FONT=Palatino Linotype][B][STABS] — [BBM] sTAB[/B]
Disables BB code translation on the wrapped text.[/FONT][/QUOTE]

Why do we need this?

[QUOTE][FONT=Palatino Linotype][B][DU] — Double Underline[/B]
An underline beneath an underline[/FONT][/QUOTE]

This is pointless. Why do we need double underline?

[QUOTE][FONT=Palatino Linotype][B][DSCROL] — Div Scroll[/B]
Makes a section of text scrollable[/FONT][/QUOTE]

text scrollable?

Just use a your mouse or the scroll bar. No one is having trouble scrolling down text normally.

meh


[QUOTE][FONT=Palatino Linotype][B]FIELDSET] — [BBM]Fieldset[/B]

  • Most of them seem pointless tbh.

    Plain Text
    >Text would look ugly w/ random BB codes visible. I guess it could be useful for giving someone a.. signature to copy and paste?

    Background
    >I think bolding/underlining/sizing text is a sufficient way to "highlight" parts of text.

    Div scroll
    >I guess this could be useful to keep extremely long posts from "clogging" up the forum. Still seems kinda pointless.

    Double underline
    >Just... :| Okay. :lol

    Spacer
    >Makes it look really ugly imho. Also seems useless.

    Slider
    >Seems pretty cool. :p But spoiler tags/Jutsu tags and image codes suffice. This' more appealing though.

    Stabs
    >Doubt this would ever be used. :|

    Overline
    >Seems really pointless.

    You doubled up on plain text. :p

    Overall, there are some pretty neat ones and a fair amount of "useless" ones. Not a bad suggestion, I wouldn't mind some being implemented. It obviously wouldn't affect me if they were all implemented, but as stated, some seem pointless. Let's see where this goes. :)

The plain text one is already there just under a different name.

[noparse][/noparse]

[B]Text goes here[/B]

It is actually good since you can show people what BBcodes there are and how to use them. @the people saying it is useless.

@Plain test, seems pointless because you have the PHP code. If you're trying to help a newbie and you want to give them the code, just type it in the PHP code and you'll be set to go.

I'ma take one of my signatures as a example
PHP:
[CENTER][IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/11gttu1.jpg[/IMG]
" Who wouldn't want to make their friends happy? That's just normal, man" 
- Suna, Bro/Wingman of the year.[/CENTER]

" Who wouldn't want to make their friends happy? That's just normal, man"
- Suna, Bro/Wingman of the year.​

To me they seem pretty much pointless.

I didn't even know there was that. :lmao:

There is also already highlighting which I was also unaware of.. :|

Some can be fun for people like bio makers, but in the end I really don't see what's the worth of several of them. We are not going to start adding more BB codes just for the sake of adding more BB codes. Then there should be some a reason as why it would be useful to add some of them.
