Get rid of old scratchblocks plugin

I find it really annoying that  if I want to point to something, a green boolean edge pops up and the rest of the text is bold, such as:

    >>
This does not have bold tags.

Re: Get rid of old scratchblocks plugin

They left it in so that posts that used the old renderer could still be readable.
However, I agree that they could at least make the effort of not parsing as old scratchblocks code anything posted after a certain date (when the new plugin was released)!

Re: Get rid of old scratchblocks plugin

And the same is with )) which is annoying when your trying to do something like ((1+1)+1)-(1+1) or a mathematical equation.

Re: Get rid of old scratchblocks plugin

I submitted a patch to them, but i included too much, so it wasn't approved. I'll try again i guess.

I agree, it looks rather strange.

Re: Get rid of old scratchblocks plugin

Support.
Also, did anyone even use the old plugin?

I occasionally see the new one around, I don't think I ever saw the old one (although I wasn't that active on these forums until after the new one was released).

Re: Get rid of old scratchblocks plugin

To those saying it would affect the old posts, they could just make it check the date of the post, and only add the old scratchblocks if the post was posted before the new plugin was implemented.

That would be a bit difficult to code.

You could edit everyone's post that had them and make the blocks into some sort of img tag thing.
