Formatting
« on: October 14, 2016, 06:58:13 pm »
While I now realize it is against the rules, which I apparently overlooked, why not simply eliminate the text formatting tools altogether.

If changing the color of the font from black to dark purple, for example, causes so many problems then why not just get rid of most of the tools.

I am not trying to be a jerk but I think it is a legitimate suggestion.
But there is really no point in having all these tools if we are just going to be reprimanded for changing a color slightly or slightly changing the font size.

Thanks

The software does not easily allow this. It could be done, but it's not worth the cost it would be to pay someone to change it and maintain it.
