Tiny writing.

Maxticate

Those who do it know who they are!

You make the text smaller to indicate stuff you say under your breath or witty put downs.

This is how it looks on my screen,





it's incredibly frustrating to read and I have to hold cntrl and mouse wheel to make it bigger or cntrl + several times to be able to read it comfortably. The above two examples are not the worst cases of it either. I've seen some absolutely miniscule text used before.

like this!

Can we put subtext in italics or something. I can't be the only one to find this annoying can I, can I?

I press 'quote' and it lets you read it proper size with the BBscript.

If it takes too much effort to read, then don't bother.

Yes it is quicker.

But all the people doing it should remember nothing worth reading was ever written in tiny text

Maxticate

What size text can the BB handle?

nothing over 24?

and more entertainingly you had a post with the greyish background (for me anyway) so you could read it anyway

It is true sometimes trolling with bbcode can require a little finesse...
