Entire paragraphs in bold typically burn on the eyes. Common uses of bolding include:
Do not bold entire paragraphs. Common uses of bolding include:
* Open tags that require a response (E.G.: DELANO: Response)
* Location headers: '''((Sickbay, USS Invicta))'''
* Indicating stage direction after a tag with double colons :: text :: (E.G. Skyfire: :: nodded :: )
* Signatures
* Location headers: (( Sickbay, USS Invicta ))
* Adding new dialogue in response to an open tag (This is not always necessary, depending on how old the tag is.)
