textile, bbcode.. bollocks!
I'm still wondering how come products (as they like to call it) like basecamp and thousands of forums out there are still using textile and bbcode (probably because everyone uses phpBB ;). I agree, bbcode was a good solution when it was released, a good way to control what the user was sending to the server. Then textile was a clever version of bbcode, faster to write, but in both of them you're always quite limited. I really hate whenever I have to write a new post in basecamp at work. You cannot really combine things, and whenever you have to write in any forum with bbcode, that's painful again.

Nowadays we got scripts like fckeditor which simulates an editor like word, notepad or any of those, where you select a word, click a button and tadaaa! bold! isn't that easier?!

And yeah, I know, I'm the first that is still using bbcode for xplsv.tv, but believe me when I say that this will change soon! ;)
