Color, font size and font types just make people try to make their posts/threads look more "eye popping" than the other guys.

We are not pea-blam!-, we are people....most of us anyway.

Seriously peac_cks is blammed...oy..its a bird, not genitalia!

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Those are all very abusable, and would transform "The Flood" into a colored mess.

With coup, it already is a coloured mess.

Precisely why I don't use it.

You can put a poll in a thread unless Bungie fixed it, but I doubt it.

I'd like strike-through so we can make jokes easier.

That's a big NO on colors. Trust me.

Needs more "poll?" I'm confused.


A Poll inside a Poll, POLLCEPTION!

Needs more poll.

This is a thread to see what the community can think of as things to add as options while posting, not weather or not we should include X features.

the only use for strike through in a post is a correction or redaction of a previous statement.

Most times people will not take the effort to even correct a post, they just make a new one.

BUNGiE will always by my favorite gaming developer

rock on and continue with epic-ness

Thread is now a hot topic......


Hey Urk can you get more people to post pics?

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Back in my day, we only had 16 colors...

Lucky, my Crayon box had eight...

Anyway, I really don't see why they're needed. The forums aren't really meant to look pretty, they're meant to convey thoughts and ideas, which can be done perfectly well through the most basic text options.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

Posting in epic thread.

What purpose does strikethrough text serve?

For sarcastic pseudo humorous purposes. Pretty much the same as Italics really.

Comedic value and editing (for example, if you had a large post and wanted to show that a small part was edited, you would strikethrough the old text and write the new afterwards, I've seen a few news sites that do this and I quite like it)

I wouldn't say we need more options, but a few more options such as strike-through, page breaks and bullet points would be nice. I don't think most other options, such as sizes, colours and images should be added, as it would clutter up the forum and be abused by trolls.

From now one every post you make should have an image.

I think what we have now is solid. I could see it getting kind of messy and as someone else has said, cluttered if Size and color were added back to regular posts.

I do think emoticons would be a cool feature though.

The problem is, unless everyone has that, it's not global.

Yeah more options isn't a bad idea as long as it doesn't get out of control.
