I am a bit concerned about having an HTML or visual editor on the forum. One reason is because a large amount of what I do in some of my games involves copypasta from Excel (or more specifically, Google Sheets) with the coding already written into the cells. This allows me to place a lot of information into a single cell, which I can then update automatically with calculations and copy into the forum post.

An example of this is [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/4317870]the 0th post[/url] I linked previously. If you look at the post, you'll see a very complicated table with a significant amount of work input into the correct BBCode tags. Switching to an HTML editor (a good time to note that I have no experience in coding HTML) would make the table creation significantly more difficult to input into a single line in Excel. I'll add that all of this information is automatically generated by changing values on my spreadsheet, and I do not actually modify the table itself when I edit the post - I delete the previous table and overwrite it using the copy paste from Excel.

I'm sure that a similar function is available with a HTML editor, but it requires every user on this site to learn a new form of coding. There are some limitations to this text editor (no font styles, limited description of tools, etc), but it is not a "bad" editor. People can do a lot with it. In fact, I personally would prefer the limitations of the BBCode to remain in place instead of allowing people to access all of the possibilities of HTML, making it more difficult for me to use the site while in a work environment (background images, auto-playing sound, and a whole host of other HTML options would really limit my usage of the site).

Yes, HTML is more powerful, but with more power comes more problems. The BBCode editor allows the moderators greater control over the media content of posts. Allowing HTML will potentially allow any number of major and disruptive issues. I would be grateful if this editor were improved rather than scrapped.
