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.
# A Novel About Spinners
## Chapter 1: Fit and Petite
⬇️
A Novel About Spinners
Chapter 1: Fit and Petite
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.
⬇️
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.
⬇️

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!
Comments
last commentAh... 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.⬇️
You're both wrong it's Ana de Armas.

How do you do those emojis?

@frustratedInTheUS, Emojis depend on your device & operating system.

This generation is truly different.
I didn’t think I’d live long enough when men would care just as much about formatting text on a site dedicated primarily to finding strippers that suit our needs.
But here we are!

How do I add more than an extra .05 space between paragraphs?

And yes, Ana de Armas is hotter than both Emma Watson and Sidney Sweeney.

Hmm @Dolfan, I'm not sure. I'm going to add three empty lines below and see if just that works.
If that doesn't work there's another trick to try.

So that didn't work. But if you really need extra space you can try a code block:
👆I did that by starting and ending a block of spaces with three grave accents (`). But be careful with those code blocks, they can cause text to run into the margins of the page.

Cool stuff Ron! I don't know how often I might use some of these, but if you're trying to make some text stand out, it's nice to know how to do it. I actually discovered the three asterisks the other day by accident. :)

So what is the excuse for mistaken use of “an” instead of “a” (x2) in OP 2nd paragraph above?
