PLEASE Remove this. All it is doing is being used to troll and getting threads off-topic Look at this one for example: http://empireminecraft.com/threads/job-command-function-idea.36812/page-2#post-702657 or this one http://empireminecraft.com/threads/hello.36836/ Pleas remove this!
All my yes! +1. Its extremely annoying and for players who don't know what it is its probably very confusing.
I was so confused at first. I did not hear of the feature, and I was getting trolled, left, right, and center I do not see how this helps anything on forums, +1 to removing.
I personally NEED it for some special wiki stuffs (and also nagged Aikar to add it a while ago). If people abuse nice things, we should get rid of the people... not the nice things.
*wonders what wiki stuff the hamster needs it for* The command is actually quite confusing, and we need to have some sort of limit to it or punishment for misusing it...
If there was a way to disable it on the forums but enable it on the wiki that would be great, but I guess XenForo doesn't work like that. Never mind, it can be done It also breaks quotes, so if the was a fix for that, that would be great too.
That seems too harsh to me, it would be almost like punishing people for for using %player on their residences (although that's on their residences). Would make much more sense to simply block use for regular players. If there isn't a way to disable it in groups I personally don't think it's worth it on the Wiki just to make it look a bit more fancy.
Hopefully there is a way. More than one person has been confused by their name popping up in threads. Misuse would of course be using it to confuse/anger people on purpose...
No because then you are giving it 'exclusivity' and I thought that EMC wasn't like that. Also you can argue that because they've been on the empire longer that they are more mature, but that isn't always the case.
It would need Aikar to install another addon, but it is possible to limit BBCode usage by permissions. It's more than making it fancy. It's a fundamental feature I need to create something. By abuse, I'd say using it to purposely annoy/confuse something is that. Not simply using it to customise messages a little bit. I wonder if we could make it auto colour/underline/bold or whatever if a player uses it.
The majority of people I've seen using it are for "I BLAME {username}!" So I feel like it could cause unnecessary confusion and feel like people are being attacked etc. I think we should allow it, but only if they say they used it after, or make it obvious they did.
I think it needs to be blocked completely with Jack's method, as the requirement of its moderation just isn't worth it
