I've just added some custom BBCode to the forum. Here's what I've added:
[youtube] - YouTube videos.
Spoiler (show ) - Display of spoilers - it hides the text, and you have to click on a link to show it. This only works if you have Javascript enabled. You can choose to add a description, much like the [quote] tags.
[*]Out of character: - Out Of Character - primarily for role-playing threads such as the Phoenix's Garters and the Pride of Darkness.
Example usage is as follows:
Code: Select all
[youtube]uBbmiQhuAhU[/youtube]
[spoiler]Some random string[/spoiler]
OR
[spoiler="Rick Astley"]Never gonna give you up...[/spoiler]
[ooc]warble[/ooc]
This post will be edited if we ever add any more.

I thought we had a gentleman's agreement that whatever we discuss in the mod lounge stays in the mod lounge.
I suppose thats what you get when you make gentleman's agreements between parties who aren't
