Duplicate Remove font formatting - as default?

[Hoolio]

I am a bit weirded-out by the text entry box's ability to make use of the font you get from web pages..

Is there a way to strip the text of any formatting? As a posting default?

Because if you copy and paste something, you are then forced to carry on with the snippets font and size etc.. its a bit weird.

Thanks

Use the plain text editor.

Go to Account -> Preferences -> Uncheck "Use the rich text editor to create and edit messages"

If you still want to use the Rich Text Editor, use this addon. There is a plain text option.
