The two bb codes can be used though example:
Quote code:It'll be a reply to one of the user that comments on the game.
Image code:That can be used to have a example to someone or a reference for the game.

The game comments aren't for conversation, though. It's to leave a comment about the game, not somebody else's comment. And images in games wouldn't work out too well since I think that they will be used to often to describe a game. People would be putting a lot of memes in games. Also, I don't think Armor Games keeps track of images in the database, so someone could put curse words in an image.

Like I said, we will look into adding more BBcode support on AG3, but I doubt we would add linking/images on game comments as they're not relevant.

I *think* that smileys have already been thrown out due to how people might abuse them in the forums and on comments. You can, however, get a smiley on the Internet - click image location - click image on the forums - insert smiley, then it'll show up when you post.

And anyway, you can use text smileys. I rather like them.
Examples:

:P


:O
Etc..

I agree. If an option to add smileys would be added, the comments would become the mess. I mean, some people will only put that, thinking it's a comment. But it isn't.

But the bold, italic and links tools are good ideas. I ever mentionned it on another thread.

I don't feel smiley faces have a place, but I'll talk to the team about it. They technically fall under 'images', which I'm not sure are relevant for game comments.

What about special characters, because I know they aren't supported now. Although I don't really see a need for them. It would be nice, but when would they honestly be used.

We've already discussed "special characters" ... since all game comments need to be in English, special characters like accents, don't need to be allowed.

So it sounds like the comments are good how they are, but what if we add a reveiw setion and a bugs section like talked about? The basics like: bold italic link image quote would be nice in a reveiw or bug section of the game coment section, you could make a tab system have one tab for comments one for reveiws and on more for bugs, when you click the comment tab it opens the comment part that is just like the ones now, if you click the review it would have the same stuff as the forums plus a speacil format like
A box for the title a box for overall or summery and a box or a few for in-depth stuff (like in the game make game reveiw sytem), then if you click the bugs tab you get the same stuff as the forums with a title and a the post box like GS. That sounds like a good inprovemet...

The problem is coment don't need that much but reveiws and bugs would so the tab sytem make it so you get all the types a detail depths and such but they don't effect each other, if neccasary I can get some example pics up later...

While we're speakin' of comments, it'd be cool if on people's profiles it showed at what time their last comment was, and what page. Same w/ forums.
