Considering how hard it sometimes is to tell intent over the Internet (for example, I could come across someone calling Jocabia a douchebag and report it in Moderation without realising that Jocabia and said poster have a history of "insulting" each other in that way and they do so endearingly), having a sarcasm font might be a good idea around here.
The other board I'm on also refers to words that look like they should be sarcastic as "missing [sarcasm] font." They use the colour blue to signify sarcasm. I propose we do the same in NSG.
