I apologise in advance for any spelling errors, English is not my mother language and I use internet speech a lot.
Hello! I've come across a lack of very useful/otherwise great BB-Codes many other forums use across the 2 years I've spent playing this game. Personally I find the limitations sad and would love to see more!
Some of the already-implemented ones are also in need of improving IMO.

-Lists; unordered & ordered
Very commonly used on forums that use BBcode. Great for organizing.
(Most are screenshotted/quoted from phpBB)

- unordered list
Show hidden content
To create an unordered list you use '[list][/list]' and define each item within the list using '[*]'. For example to list your favourite colours you could use:

On certain sites they allow the use of more varied/specified bullet designs, such as circles, slashes & squares. ('[list=square] [*]x [/list] would display as a list with square-shaped bullets if it was a choice.)


- ordered, alphabetized
Show hidden content
The second type of list, an ordered list, gives you control over what is output before each item. To create an ordered list you use '[list=1][/list]' to create a numbered list or alternatively '[list=a][/list]' for an alphabetical list. (For roman numeral lists one would use '[list=i]'. As with the unordered list, items are specified using '[*]'. For example:

ordered


alphabetized



roman numerals



-Font choices
Fonts are mainly a stylistical choice but can make your text look professional, even! Some also like the aesthetic of having a font different from default. (coughs)

A font is usually used like so: '[font=EX_FONT] Text here [/font]

A good bunch of examples:


-Text Aligment
You know the '[center][/center]'-code? well Something I'd like to see would be text aligned separately to right and indented text. (all the screen shots here are taken from Flight Rising)
(since '[right][/right]'-code already exists '[aligment=right][/aligment]' could also serve the job.)

- right-aligned text


- indented text


That's all i can think of right now! i was also thinking of adding improved columns to this post but that can be done later. Right now I need opinions and support on this!

Support, ya! I love coding and making my threads look very pretty and this would be absolutely superb. <3 It reminds me a lot of like, Flightrising. as they have some of these BBcodes (like the list ones) and I really like them as they can make stuff look a lot neater and more professional!!
Would love to have these. <3

This has my support! I was surprised to see there wasn't an option for the list code while I was messing with some coding last night to get used to it.
