          @gladosenchilada Not really. BBcode has a pretty unpleasant syntax, so as long as the new syntax is modified to not go wrong in the cases where it currently does, I welcome the addition.

            @bitshift But it ruins * and / and -, tghat are used to give tone to phrases, and that's just stupid. Man each day there's a new thing to make RDN worse.

              @gladosenchilada Gives tone to phrases, you mean exactly what bbcode is suppose to be used for anyway?

                @minti Screw BBcode, that's for fancy stuff, it's dumb for everyday use.

                    @minti I'm against symbols as a BBcode shortcut. Because then I can't use the symbols.

                      @gladosenchilada You'll be able to use the symbols anyway. They're parsed server side, and work on mobile even.

                        @minti Exactly, server side, so if I for example use * 3 * as an emoricon, I'll just see a 3.

                          @gladosenchilada Oh sorry, mis-read that. :p Yeah, that's what we're trying to fix, and is honestly the only problem I have with using a RDN Specific flavor of markdown or something.

              @gladosenchilada But the formatting they turn into also gives tone to the same phrases? I'm... not really seeing the problem.

                @bitshift What about actions? Make them double symbols for code, and it will be fine.

                  @gladosenchilada I'm ok with the double symbols for everything idea. This would really solve every possible problem.

                    @toksyuryel I'm okay with that too.

                    @gladosenchilada @toksyuryel @widget Yeah, this'd be good. Still more concise than BBcode, but drastically less likely to eat symbols that weren't intended to be formatting.

      @widget Screw the symbols! They're there to be used, not to format text. That's what [] are for. Make it **//-- for code, instead of */-, and then it won't eat symbols.

      @widget Might it be beneficial to add an extra code to escape all of the formatting within? <<stuff>> for instance?

          @gladosenchilada It's beneficial for phones, but it really needs ways to escape the formatting. Making it an option in the Plus settings would probably help that, plus being able to escape it.

            @redenchilada Actually that's a great idea. Being able to enable/disable it from the Plus options @widget
