I just noticed what CP does when he quotes someone - he puts it in [size = 1][ /size] tags. I think its a very good idea - any way to make that the default text size for quotes?
-
I voted forget it, because it's iritating to read such small size.
How it is now is fine.
-
I move that rather than have the sigs small font, we have them be the largest font possible. And in bright red, flashing characters as a default. And that the regular text gets 50% gray coloring, and the smallest size. The quote function can be removed altogether, along with the board's recognition of quote marks.

I usually tend to do that for longer posts and large chunks of quoted text so as to minimize redundancy of text on the page and to keep posts shorter. As you can see here though, I think I will start following this practice for all posts. ;)

yeah, but cause you're an admin your vote counts for 2!
(you have to have seen "Signs" to get what i'm saying)
-
I don't care about it in small posts... but in longer posts I do it myself, too, and it should be done then.

Please do it! :p

Hm, just a note: you know that [ s ] and [ /s ] are a quick replacement for [ size=1 ] and [ /size ], right? :)
-
Could you do a similar thing for [ font=symbol ] and [ /font ] ? :D ;7

You know, Thunder, for a retired admin, you still seem to be doing a lot of administrating. Not that that is a bad thing. Just a bit funny. ;)

What's so funny about doing your former job without all of the work?
-
The working retired.
The little big guy.
The bald man named Harry.
The Holy Roman Empire (neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire).
Grapenuts (neither grapes, nor nuts).
Driving on a parkway and parking in a driveway.
Irony is the highest form of humour.

Nullifying Strykes post count isn't work, it's entertainment. Don't confuse the two ;)

Good that you won't do it, with that CP could post maths faster. :headz:
-
Actually, I'm thinking of putting a hack that puts the text "I'm a math troll" in place of any mathematical equation, but still shows the original equation to the person that posted it.
:drevil: :D

:yes: Good idea! :)
Evil admin, you are. :-)
Hmm, how about deleting the symbol font? ;)J/K
-
Nope. :p
Pretty pretty pllllleeeeeease?
(I have a large set of these :D)
Hmm, how about deleting the symbol font?
Then I can always just use images for math expressions... ;7
Nice black text BTW; I didn't see it at all until I tried to copy/paste it for quoting. :p :D

Why?! Why would you do that?!

These people just don't get it I guess...

To prevent CP from posting maths, except that would prevent that from all.
Maybe if it would check for username... ;7;7;7
J/K
Edit: :blah: The symbol font looks even worse when bold, so removed bold. Have a nice day. :)
-
Heh. Symbol font doesn't confuse me... I had my web browser (opera) in 'author' mode to check for black text (makes all fonts normal, and nullifies the background). I didn't even realise you guys were using symbol until I turned 'author' off ^_^

As I said, I could still just post images containg the math stuff. ;7

How hard is it to put in [ s ] and [ /s ] like this? :confused: :p

First off, I never knew about those shortcut tags. But beyond that, how many people are actually going to make sure to do that every time they quote someone, hmmm?

If that wouldn't work, and you'd be posting images, the image tag should be removed from you. After that goes web addresses, not only URL tag but it would change the address to something else, and then would go all the tags (including smilies) and then you should be banned. ;7;7
:D

You both are just proving my point... oh, wait... *looks closely at smileys* You responded with questions on purpose, didn't you? ;)
And Shrike: I was actually referring to the tendency of those with a Jewish nationality - ethnic group, if you will - to answer questions with questions. I wasn't talking about the religion of Judaism. :) My father was brought up as a perfectly normal New York Jew in the '50's - they had the biggest and best decorated Christmas tree in the whole building! :lol:
