Question: Vistor Messages Question

[Lover's Kite]

So yeah, I was replying to some visitor messages earlier today and I was wondering... why is is Strikeout ( ) BB Code not allowed to be implemented? Not mad or anything, just wondering. It seems so strange. XD
I tried searching but never found a thread that answered this question. :x

So can anybody give me the heads up?

Hmm, yes, I've been wondering that aswell. XD
Also the [ QUOTE][\QUOTE] code thingy doesn't work in VM's - which I find.. Weird. :x

You know what, it's been bugging me for ages too but I've been too lazy to go turn it on. <_<; However it turns out that if we want to turn on the strike tag, we have to turn on all our custom tags--including CSS, warnings, spoilers, etc. and the whole point of keeping some tags off is so that people aren't overusing annoying tags like size/colour to make really distracting messages, and that's far too easy with our CSS tags. D:

As for quotes, I dunno. o_O Is there really much of a use for them in visitor messaging? You're only having conversations with one person, so quoting isn't really all that necessary since all the messages are right there.

I know I'd abuse size tags if I turned them on.
