BBCode Basic's
Note: When I give an example sometimes I bold a letter in the command, this is just done so that the command is not completed and you can see what I did.

1 - Introduction
Since HTML is disabled on this forum, which is good because it is alot more complicated and I don't feel like doing a whole 10 page essay, I will just share the basics of BBC. Though you can do this all above the text you are editing on the full reply screen. I will show you how to do this all with the quick reply. It's actually quite simple.
2 - Brackets.
This "[" and this "]" are brackets, these will surround your command. You will use these at both the start and end of your code. These are essential to BBC along with "/" the forward slash. This will end the current command.
Example, (not a real code.)
The tells the following what to do, then the middle is effected by the command, then The Command is ended.*
The following is showing 2 commands on the same thing.
The dog jumped over the tree
See? The text would be effected by both.
This also works.
The dog jumped over the tree
"The dog jumped", would be effected by "Sample 1". While the whole text would be effected by sample 2.*

This is an advanced URL code. This wi change your link from being just the URL. To something like a single word, or phrase.

This is not used as regulary as the others, this is where you can put a long amount of digits or words, an a scroll bar will apear, which is why it is called "code".
