An issue we're obviously having in the first two shows is the coding, and I think the reason for that is that a lot of us are coding things differently based on what works for other fed forums we're apart of or what works on other proboards sites that have different plugins than we have installed here.
Some of the coding people are doing here isn't working, and some of it IS working but it messing up the tags for other segments. I'm going to put together a very basic guide for us, but before I really start working out the details I'd like some feedback on any formatting that you as a reader particularly like or dislike.
When color coding dialogue would you prefer all of the speech to be colored for the character, or just the characters name and then what they say is standard color. Is centering text better or worse for anyone. Character names capitalized or not. Anything like that. I know some of this may be minutia and if nobody cares that's perfectly fine and I'll have this done later in the week for the next show... but if anyone DOES have opinions, speak now or forever hold your peace.

For me, being old, I would prefer the names in color and the text in standard. Makes it easier to read all around IMO.

Centering is good for some things, and not so much for others.
Character names capitalized or not.
Names are capitalized you monster... what is wrong with you?

My preferences are below:
Use the board coding, not your own.
Character names capitalized as normal, not the whole name capitalized.
All of the speech to be colored for the character, including name.
Centering for describing, and if possible, italicized, but keep it as is for the color (default).

Board coding preferable, or at least have a list somewhere with established coding for characters so we can just copy and paste from there if we code it ourself.
I'm fine with all caps for character names.
Just the name colored as well.
Centering everything is ace.
