Then we get to laugh at them and feel superior.
Hey! Here's an idea! Take a leaf out CSS Zen Garden's book and let users upload their own CCS for the site!!

But the only people who read the news, generally post in the BBS.

So you don't want to feel all high and mighty, as we laugh at those people?

Because this space needs to be bigger than it already should be.
Jigen made this sig. madknt downsized it to fit the filesize limit. Go team.

Fonts are decided upon by the end-user's browser. Arial comes bundled with most users' computers, let alone what they install for themselves. Any fonts that you see that are not arial in the forums, or in any other area of the site are most likely compiled within images (which aren't text, surprise, surprise).
So your suggestion about fonts is relatively assinine, given that all users who browse the forums would have to have that font on their machine, rather than there being "new fonts for the forum", which would only appear for those who have those fonts on their machine.
Kirk-cocaine: As for the nested lists... Not sure what you mean. <ul> is usually for un-ordered lists and <ol> is usually for ordered lists. You can apply stylesheets to both.

Lists within lists, James!
I.E: (underscore equals space, silly BBS auto format! :P)
<ul>
___<li>text</li>
___<li>text text</li>
______<ul>
_________<li>text</li>
______</ul>
___<li>text text text</li>
</ul>
When I do that I looks fine in IE/FF/etc but the W3 validator gives me all sorts of error messages. And it's just not me, all my class-mates have the same error, I don't think my lecturer knows what the fuck he is doing ;P

Here's your problem:
That second, inner <ul> tag needs to be inside <li> tags itself. Your example should look like this instead:
<ul>
___<li>text</li>
___<li>text text</li>
___<li>
______<ul>
_________<li>text</li>
______</ul>
___</li>
___<li>text text text</li>
</ul>
That should validate just fine.
How about new post icons? A sad face is desperately needed.
I can't wait to see the next-generation angry face.

I don't see a point with the new layout so close at hand.

Bring back the blank posts you tooswork.
Nah, pretty cool, it allways pissed me off to no end, especially when wanting to insert links mid-text. I mean bold or italics (face it, who really even uses underline ever?) are quite simple really, but links are a pain. I do like typing them out though, but hen it's mid text, it's no fun.
bring back the blank posts, please!

What's so wrong with giving people a sneak-peak? If Stamper can do it, then so can you.

Stamper gave you a tiny screenshot of what's to come. He'd never give anything away with respect to how things look in any detail and nor will I.
