A question to the AB Editor

[sp1814]

A few years ago, the Answerbank supported HTML codes such as <b> and </b> for bold text, <i> and </i> for italicises, and <u> and </u> for underlined text.

Are there any plans to reinstate this? 

If we are able to create posts with emphases, it would lead to a reduction in what I can only describe as 'misplaced antagonism'.

I post this in the 'News' section, because this is where all the hep cats hang out (and has the second largest demographic on Answerbank).

tiggerblue10 - a 'hep cat' is a cool kid who hangs out at a soda jerk (John Travolta in 'Grease' would be a very good example).

Seeing as how this thread has degenerated into a morass of upside down posts, I now withdraw my request, as I can now see how far the abuse of non-standard text input can go.

With great power comes no responsibility it seems.
