It'd be nice if MyBB 1.0 came standard with rich-text editing. All the major BBS now have this (vB, IPB, WowBB, Burning Board, etc.), so why not MyBB?
A WYSIWYG editor will hopefully be in MyBB 1.2
Is that a official word from the creator or not?

Its one of the things we want to add (I think
), along with a few other wicked features
No promises though, it might not get included because diffculties, or until a version after that! Who knows
Personally, I think a WYSIWYG editor, in a way, is a bloat. I've been using BBCode / HTML too long for me to want to see a "live preview" of what I'm going to write.

Agreed. I think it's overkill. Even if it were implemented, I would want an "off" switch for it.

Of course it could be turned on and off. But keep in mind that not everyone is good with BBCode, so for many, it's much easier to simply highlight text and press a button. They get a live preview to make sure the formatting is how they want it.
