This is a superb tool that will is great and easy-- once you get used to it.

De-evolution in action.

UI's are meant to make life easier, not introduce learning curves.
This implementation of Markup is so great even an underline is not possible? Or change the color of text? The forum markup preview recognizes "Greaterthan/command/Lessthen" but the actual forum doesn't... What was wrong with BBcode may I ask?

Again this is a case of: Oh, you don't like it. Well thats your fault or you are just not smart enough to understand how great it is. You will love it when you adapt.
Sorry but No I won't. It took me ten minutes to look at markup and understand it's use and two minutes to realise its a step backwards for the forums. Maybe if there is some more front end built on to it like simple buttons to bold, Italic, text size and color and a realistic quotation system it may become usable, but no I wouldn't say it's great.
