I had one (1) message in Discord deleted and proceeded to make a huge, huge mess about how it was a violation of free speech and how moderators are supposed to be spam janitors and nobody should have the right to tell me not to talk about school shootings

Jul - Post #2086 - 01-06-08 08:10:44pm I probably use caps the most because it takes less effort.  I like italic, though.

It tends to differ with me - for rants/RAEG, I tend to use bold. Other times, underline or caps. ... Mostly a combination of the three.

Most likely, I use Italics. I hardly emphasize any text, but from what I can remember, I use Italics.

I'd use italics more if it weren't so unnoticeable... D:
Therfore, I usually use bold. :3

Color for me (usually red, but sometimes I'll use different colors as appropriate).
text is fun, but I don't think anyone uses it to emphasize anything serious.

Sometimes I use italics, sometimes I use BOLD, and sometimes I use all caps, depending on where the typing is being done. In most games, for example, I can't use bold or italics. Italics are generally used for more subtle emphasis, while bold are used for beat-you-about-the-head emphasis.

The blinking text works in Opera, but not Internet Explorer. All the more reason to get a different browser, even if it's a small reason to, but it's not that important.

No, this reason isn't valid.
Considering the blink tag is crap, shouldn't ever be used in a serious context.

Of course, there are much better reasons to get a different browser than the blinking tag. I didn't even know there was a blinking tag to begin with.

Of course, the fact the "—" is impossible to type on this keyboard (unless it's some stupid HTML entity) doesn't help my overabuse of (this).
Reminds me, sometimes the dash would work better than the typical "..." I use for pausing. Although — mentally — I tend to let my sentences trail off...

 |  | I use bold, italics, or dashes. But -someone- didn't allow multi-voting, or added in dashes. I think.

I notice a lot of interesting things that people post actually—such as acronym/abbr tagging, use of special characters, etc...
