Wow that's a new feature of Hostboards, I didn't knew of it. Of course it should not be used, it makes posts ugly and loadtimes higher.
Because of that i made that post, to make everybody notice about the new tags, though
<blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana,Tahoma">spoiler (click to view):</font><hr size="1"><div class="spoiler" id="R9FOL4">This spoiler tag is really useful! ^^</div><hr size="1"></blockquote>
I could use that size tag to make tiny sigs like yous aid Miguel, therefore making longer sig ^_^
The colors and big sizes would get old, and Marquee is just way too hard too read.
I like the spoiler one though!
<blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana,Tahoma">spoiler (click to view):</font><hr size="1"><div class="spoiler" id="VRTZMO">
NR-13: </blockquote>" target="_blank">http://www.furinkan.net/favorites/otimage1.jpg[/SPOILER]

Now with more time:
It appears that Hostboard.com has added new tags to change size and color and to do marquees. I think these make posts horrible and they also slow down the board a bit. You probably know by now that I'm not one for that kind of stuff.
Please use them only in well justified cases (like a title in a very long post which is divided into sections (for example, a long movie or game review), a happy birthday-like thing, or a very important message somebody seemed to ignore, for example).
It looks like we already have regulation on them: Granaboard Rules & Regulations, Message Board Rules & Regulations, Message Board Moderation Rules
1.3.14. Abuse and/or improper use of tags is considered a violation.
Starting right now, I *will* moderate new posts which abuse these tags, so please use them wisely, or don't use them at all.

IRT Xellos: You shouldn't, even if you make it smaller looking it's larger and takes more bandwidth.
On the spoiler tag:
I hadn't noticed there's a new spoiler tag. It seems to work well, so I'll unofficially accept it as a proper marking, blank lines not being necessary in addition to it.
From now on, you may mark spoilers either by using the spoiler tag or by using the classic warning with blank lines. Be careful with the tag though, be sure to use it properly, because if you misspell it or something, and it doesn't work, I'll delete the post.
Sometimes it doesn't work properly, at least that is what i've noticed...
Cool, have you read the annoucement here?:
