Allow Vb codes in thread titles?
I think it would be fun to allow Vb codes in thread titles. Think of the variety of styles, colours etc we would have. And see how creative people will get trying to get the most attention to their thread!
Of course, you'd probably have to limit it to italics, underline, bold, color, and font type/size. Things like lists and pictures and links just wouldn't work would they.

Good idea 
But I think Mark'd have to exclude font size too. How would you like to open a forum and see This
It would just be begging for people to spam

MarkG and DanQ... I know that it is your call to make...

I can't even begin to guess how bad it could be abused

No. Do not do this. It's fine the way it is. If you want to draw attention to your thread, give it a clever name. This is definitely not necessary.

Please, no. I can imagine when the day comes that a thread title takes up the whole page.

I wouldn't mind it if only certain people could use it.

As you wish, Rusty. Here's my personal answer and a small demonstration.
NO WAY!
BTW, you can already spice up your thread title with some neat name and a smiley thread icon, so IMO that's ought to be enough.

Thankfully I doubt Mark or Dan will allow this.

Yes... but only for smileys, bold, italic, underline.
That's it.
