#2330, "The problem with in-game..."


          

Is purely how many characters it can take for input (which is far less than a potential role entry). Let's say max input is 256 chars, you aren't going to get a lot of good formatting from that.

Another option is to let you put your role in, and then go back and format it, but who the hell wants to do string manipulation in C. We have enough random issues with strings (crashing) the game, adding this on top of it would only make it that much worse.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
