A question to the AB Editor

[sp1814]

A few years ago, the Answerbank supported HTML codes such as <b> and </b> for bold text, <i> and </i> for italicises, and <u> and </u> for underlined text.

Are there any plans to reinstate this? 

If we are able to create posts with emphases, it would lead to a reduction in what I can only describe as 'misplaced antagonism'.

I post this in the 'News' section, because this is where all the hep cats hang out (and has the second largest demographic on Answerbank).

I must admit that NazNomad told me how to do it...

It's not working for me though, Ummm ;-(

The face, that is...

THIS IS SHOUTING.

This is EMPHASISING. Don't you think?

Hi Tigger, I wondered that myself?

[tiggerblue10]

Doesn't look like anyones paying attention now Ark! We'll just have to make up our own ideas. Maybe heppy cats who are happy in a South African accent.

[tiggerblue10]

Although that doesn't sound right in the News section! Lol

[ummmm]

Society have you got a side number pad? It doesn't work with a top one..

[Arksided]

seems so... lol. however this thread is not in CB so were not allowed to say 'Hi' either.

[ummmm]

But it's not a news question either so we might get away with it :-)

But setting your type to upside down is just irritating. Everyone can read it so what is the point of it?

[Arksided]

it's easier my eyes are up-side -down.

I can see how the multicolour posts would be annoying though. before my time on AB so i never saw them.
