Currently we have some cool BB Codes (eg. Spoiler | Strike through) but wouldn't it make the forums more attractive by adding more ? or the reason that we dont have that because it costs too much ?

It costs nothing to put BBCodes in, you just need to know HTML and CSS to create them.

My suggestion would be to suggest BBCodes you want added so people can decide on whether it would be feasible to add it or not.

I still dont know some BBcodes that is 3.8.x Compatible, I know some of 4 Compatible such as glow text, etc.

All BBCodes are cross-compatible. But I really don't think a glow text BBCode is needed. Hint: It only works on IE.

Then there's lot to choose, I leave it to the others to choose.

You can put in BBCode free of cost, however, compatibility with browsers and actual necessary use is limited. The ones we have now are the essentials.

However, the staff is open to any ideas that you might have.
If you see any BBCode that you think is a good idea to add and can maybe tell us why it's useful, feel free to post it in this thread.

We would be happy to review it.

The only impediment to new BB Codes is usefulness, but ya, I'm open to it.

Can you give some example of some useful/interesting BB Codes instead ?

Basically what we have now.
Having a YouTube button maybe, but that doesn't really count.

Maybe horizontal rule, but it might already be built in.



EDIT: Nope, it's not.

It would be cool, but not very useful.

You can do that rather easily.

You can find it pretty easily by just searching up some sites to give you rainbow colored text code. It's pretty easy and it takes all of about 5 seconds or however long it takes you to type up a short message. :lol:

Shall we only aim for the usefulness ?

No point in having anymore really, we don't even need the image code anymore.

Users tend to seek something new time by time so why not ?

Because we don't need it.
Iirc, you can just post the link to a pic or vid and it just attaches the tags to it now.
