    Using CODE vs QUOTE tags with formatted content

    Please do not use the CODE tag when pasting content that contains formatting (colored text, bold text, underline text, italic text, etc) Use the QUOTE tag instead.

    The CODE tag displays all content as plain text, including the formatting tags, making it difficult to read.

    Example 1:
    Code:
    Please do not use the [B]CODE[/B] tag when pasting content that contains formatting ([COLOR=#c0392b]colored text[/COLOR], [B]bold text[/B], [U]underline text[/U], [I]italic text[/I], etc) <i><u>Use the QUOTE tag instead.
    
    The [B]CODE[/B] tag displays all content as plain text, including the formatting tags, making it difficult to read.
    Example 2:

    Quote:
    Please do not use the CODE tag when pasting content that contains formatting (colored text, bold text, underline text, italic text, etc) Use the QUOTE tag instead.
