Heya' guys, I recently started a region of my own; however, I see other regions with fancy colors in their World Fact Book Entry. Some of them have horizontal lines in them to. Like it will say COMMUNITY: in bold blue letters or something. How do I do that? Apparently it's not HTML, I tried that. And also, I see people with fancy custom names like: The Somethings of the -Name- Instead of what is on the drop down list...How do I get one of those kinds of names. I know the guy who just got elected delegate of the North Pacific renamed himself The ENDORSE of Lumg-something. So how do I do that as well?

Have you tried BB code? It might be done with that.

Oh wow, it is done with BB Code...Well I'll be damned. Thanks fer' yer' help stranger. ^_^
I don't know anything about the world fact book, but I do know that once your population reaches a certain amount (500 million or so) you can make up your own name instead of being limited to the drop down list. It's in the faq. You may be able to find the answer to your other question there also.

Ah. ^_^ Thanks fer' both yer' guys help.
Well for the most part it's like bbCode -h ere, this was in the New Tech [and Mod] Forum FAQ (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=382519). I think people have been calling it "NScode" but I'm not too sure.
What formatting tags can we use in World Factbook Entries?
The code for this is hand-rolled. The tags that we support are:
* - bold -
* - underline -
* - italic -
* - color -
* [hr] - Horizontal Rule
* [thread ] - Links to a thread in the forums
Remove the trailing space before the ] before use.
For the last two, check out the news page for the syntax.
And yea, you can change your pretitle once you reach 500 million population and until then you're stuck with the drop down list.
