Heyya, mods and admin team. Got a request for you!

In an RP I'm in, I use abbr tags to give heavily accented dialog a plain English translation because it's hard to understand. However! These tags can't be viewed on mobile. I've read that there might be a very small site code adjustment to address this issue. I'll let the site coders look into what would need to be done, specifically, if this is deemed worthy.

An easy work around this is to treat it like wikipedia. Use superscript/[sup] with a list below the post. I'm certain you could beautify it up a tad, but to give a rough example:

"Sumthin' like diss." 1 He suggested.

1 "Something like this."

Yeah, there are other ways of doing it, certainly. I used a hider in my last post, for the benefit of those on phone, but I find it to be a little disruptive to reading flow. Especially in long posts, where someone would either have to scroll down to find the translation, or there would be multiple breaks in the post for placement of translations. If a phone user could tap on an [abbr] to read the tool tip, that would be simple and perfect.

Edit: Perhaps a demonstration, placed here, would be prudent.

Oh, hmm, that's fascinating. Thanks for the bug report--I'd suggest using a workaround for now. Definitely something we need to fix.
