Did you know? 👉 You can use markdown to format comments, reviews, posts, and even DMs on TUSCL.
Markdown is an simple syntax to format content for the web. I've experimented with a few markdown features on TUSCL and thought it would be handy to create an guide to markdown features @Founder currently supports. Take a look at the syntax below, and then I would encourage you to try it out in comments!
Text Treatment
Headers. You can create Headers (like the line above 👆) using the hashtag followed by a space. TUSCL currently supports two levels of headers.

Horizontal Rules. You can line separator 👆 like the above with three dashes.
---
⬇️
Bold & Italics. Surrounding text with two asterisks will create bold font. A single surrounding pair of asterisks will create italics. A triple asterisk will apply both bold an italics.
She turned around, showing me her **gigantic titties**, then *whispered quietly in my ear*. ***OMFG!***
⬇️
She turned around, showing me her gigantic titties, then whispered quietly in my ear. OMFG!
Strikethrough. You can strike through text by surrounding it with a pair of tildes.
The club was ~~really~~ outrageously expensive.

Code Blocks. You can escape markdown format by surrounding text with the grave accent character (`).
Blockquotes and Mentions
You can quote another user by using the greater than sign (>), and you can nest up to two quotes. Using the at symbol (@) followed by a username will send that person an alert.
>> Emma Watson is the hottest actress. > You're wrong @RonJax2, Sydney Sweeney is hotter. You're both wrong it's Ana de Armas.
⬇️
Emma Watson is the hottest actress. You're wrong @RonJax2, Sydney Sweeney is hotter. You're both wrong it's Ana de Armas.
Lists
Unordered Lists.* You can create unordered and ordered lists on TUSCL using asterisks or numbers.

Tables
Amazingly, the newest version of TUSCL even supports tables!
To make a table you can:
- Create a header line with the pipe character (|) in between each title cell.
- Create a format line which specifies left (:---), center (:---:), or right-justified (---:)
- Your subsequent lines should be pipe delimited (|) and may contain other markdown as well!
⬇️
| Very | Simple | Table | | :--- | :---: | ---: | | 1 | *Centered* Text | *Right-Justified* Text | | 2 | **More** *Centered* Text | *Right text is pretty useless.* |
⬇️
| Very | Simple | Table |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Centered Text | Right-Justified Text |
| 2 | More Centered Text | Right text is pretty useless. |
Conclusion
Use these markdown features to add clarity to your comments and reviews. If you want to try any features out, feel free to experiment below!
Ah... and I think the blockquotes need spaces in between them. So that example should've been:
>> Emma Watson is the hottest actress.
> You're wrong @RonJax2, Sydney Sweeny is hotter.
You're both wrong it's Ana de Armas.
