On the old board, [li] used to be converted to a plain bullet (inside a [list /list] pair they could be rendered as numbers or letters, but on their own, they used to make a bullet).[/li]
Was this a standard feature or a SDMB-specific modification?
(I know we can still get them like this:
[ul]
[li]firstly[/li][li]and secondly[/li][li]Hi Opal![/li][/ul]
But I thought I’d ask (not that I’m complaining mind).
I never noticed that. To make sure I understand you correctly, let me rephrase that. Are you asserting that:
In vBulletin 1.x, [li] would convert to a bullet point even if it wasn’t inside the [ul] [/ul] vBcode tags…[/li]In vBulletin 2.x, [li] will convert to a bullet point only if it’s inside the [ul] [/ul] vBcode tags.[/li]
I don’t know about the first part, but I can easily verify the second part (as a matter of fact I just did in this post.)

And no, we never created a custom vBcode, specific to the SDMB, to make a a bullet point. You could also make a bullet point by typing in � which would turn into a bullet point:
Yeah, and they also took away the feature where you could use [****/quote] to make a horizontal line, and the feature where you could use [**/b] to change the font to Times! They don’t let us have any fun anymore!
