I believe most have stopped, other than the one's trying to be funny, typing in cipher here. As for in /code it only make's your post take up less room!

I don't see how it presents any form of issue.

There's no problem with it;; we can all understand each other.

It's just annoying, code tags are for code, that's why they are called code tags. Normal words don't go in tags apart from quotes.

Normal words can go wherever. It's a matter of stylistic preference.

Re: Posting in cipher (or code) on other people's topics is Spam

What about:

int post() {
printf("I'm trying to find the extents of this rule");
return 0;
}

Because it would be funny to post like that.
And see how many people recognized the programming language.  tongue

I have to scroll to see what you said, if everyone did that it would just be stupid and there'd be no point in using the forums.

I have no clue why it gives people the urge to go

It's a good thing, and I don't think you started a fad. However, you started a new way of writing on the forums, and that is always a good thing. Anyone who was on the forums tonight observed a great event.

How's that a trend if only one person's done it and they've only done it once?

Not on other people's topics.  Remember, the purpose of the forums is Communication.  Using codes and foreign languages makes it harder to understand what is being said...and inhibits communication.

But on other people's topics in the French forum it is.  tongue
