Title: do you use the wysiwyg
Post by: snoorkel on October 13, 2011, 11:34:20 PM
and do you type HTML in posts or bbcode. like when you're typing bold or italics or links do you highlight text and use the graphical editor or just type the tags in.

I just type the tags in htmL as I go because (http://gofuck.yourself") I'm a fuckin g like dat

I usually just type the tags because I use quick reply. I'll go into the standard bbcode editor if I have a lot of tags I want to use though.

Also I think silvertone is rubbing off on you.

I don't think it qualifies as one as emphasis isn't rendered immediately as you type.

I guess that's true, we'll just consider the buttons what you see instead. my opinion rendering would be an advanced and non-requisite wysiwyg feature anyway y/n

I don't use the wysiwyg and I usually type in most tags.

wait are we talking about the buttons or what? if that's not what you mean, then I didn't even know we had it. Sometimes I type tags, sometimes I use the buttons to put the tags in, and then put in my text

I don't even remember where the wysiwyg editor is, but I remember it not working in Opera a long time ago and I totally forgot about it since. I tend to dislike wysiwyg editors of any kind anyways.

I use bbcode instead of html because things like spoilers and quotes can't be typed with the html capabilities normal users have and it's nice to keep consistent

I pretty much never click one of the bbcode insertion buttons, though I might if I want to use a tag I nearly never use and aren't sure of the exact name for. I do, however, often click emotes instead of typing them all.

wysiwyg can be pretty annoying, especially when dealing with a post that combines multiple images with text, where it would be easier and less cluttered if the images were simply represented by text between image tags

as for using bbcode here on boyah, i use quick reply almost always, so i've grown accustomed to typing out tags and they don't really slow me down at all because i'm so used to typing them
