Well, if you need more than just *bold*, /italics/ |
| 12 |
or _underline_. It might make a text easier to read, |
| 13 |
if important things are highlighted or whatnot. |
| 14 |
Also, links can be done nicer; eg. a long URL should |
| 15 |
be linked, but the *TARGET* isn't important but |
| 16 |
just what's written there. Eg. <a |
| 17 |
href="http://google.com/">searchengine</a> or something |
| 18 |
like that. |

Exactly. Actually, I think that this top posting junk only |
| 26 |
came up, because a "certain" piece of crap from Microsoft |
| 27 |
didn't support threading for FAR too long. And without |
| 28 |
threading, fullquotes are somewhat helpful (and top posts |
| 29 |
most of the time include a full quote). |
