Hiding Unwanted Messages

This is Rule 101, but i forgot explaining it.

anyway, we can hide unwanted messages inside a thread without actually deleting it.

examle
Byakuya Kun : BAD WORD BAD WORD YOU!!!

"BAD WORD BAD WORD YOU!!!" <- our bad word ^^
We just use the hide code!

Code:

[hide][b]BAD WORD BAD WORD YOU!!![/b][/hide]

and it would be hidden, but i think all mods can see it.


We use this to put the flames out ^^

If you do so ever use it please explain it to them as to why you hid the message.

that is all ^^
