Hello, is there something that can be done about microprint and the overuse of it here on the forums?
here is a perfect example, imagine if some n00b decides to start posting Everything that they say in micorprint, it is first off annoying and secondly kinds rude, as well as server lag for folks who click quote to read what they posted.
Some fols say that they use micorpiring as "whispering" well why not just use a color code, change your wisper to a different color?, WHEN PEOPLE TYPE IN ALL CAPS IT SI CONSIDERED RUDE AND TREATED AS YELLING so why not consider micro just as rude. this is my rant for the moment,

I believe that size tags are handled differently at Jolt and thus lets table this question until after the move.

I voted for the last one, just because I felt like it, but I think it is a bit 2 small.

I like microprint. I especially like the "0[/color]]" tag which allows you to basically mutter without people catching on.

[size=1]I love microprint
