HTML is off, and so may some BBCode tags. And unless I'm seeing things, that code looks pretty weird.EDIT: Moved to EE

Because tables make it very easy for text and such to look neat and organized, while plaintext is really fucking hard (espicially in non-setwidth fonts) to make look good with extremely limited formatting.

I agree for enabling tables. When the AR codes for any character in any level for SA2 were made, someone made a REAL helpful describing what characters are playable in what levels and to what extent.

That wasn't the only reason, and I was actually going to shrink down my shit significantly. But it's extremely useful. Especially with formatting beyond that (centered column headers, etc).Also trying to avoid the CODE tag at all costs. The only thing that was ever good for was quoting IRC.

Definitely more for reminder purposes, but also helps a lot to attract people to new ideas (I've said a million times before I'm a better idea man than action man, most of my shit doesn't take off)

Yeah, I can understand completely the reasons behind keeping HTML disabled. It sucks, but it's more than reasonable.I wish BBcode just did fucking tables though =\

If you need html in your sig, you spend way too much time here.
