Textile/BB Code? - Blue Tracker

#1 - Sept. 7, 2012, 11:56 a.m.

I understand the signature is text-only and 100 characters per line.

However, I am unable to get either Textile or BBCode to work on posts themselves. I’ve tried disabling Textile and using BBCode, but no avail. I’ve tried leaving Textile enabled, an no avail.

An example in BBCode…

In-line image posting from external sources is disabled on this forum. You are able to attach an image or text file (for crash reports and dxdiags) to your post by clicking on “more posting and formatting options” and clicking “choose file” under “attachments”.

This forum software does not support images in signatures and at this time, we do not intend on seeking a change in this feature.

Not having images in signatures lessens the burden on the moderator team, as they do not have to police the size and content of image-based signatures. It also keeps the forums cleaner and easier to read, as players see more of the content they are looking for and have to scroll less to read the whole page.

As stated above – “police the size and content of image-based signatures.” While it may appear to be nothing of a concern to some forum goers, such policing takes up a massive amount of man-hours when handling a forum audience of this size. Those are hours that can be better spent on other tasks.

Also as mentioned, there are no intentions on changing this in the future. Stay tuned for any announcements stating otherwise.
