Posted this in the Bugs/Features thread a few days ago, so I'll just paste it here:

In order to be able to link to specific comments in this journal entry for EVERYONE to see, I had to take screenshots of each one.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

There's a [noparse] tag that, in addition to leaving tags like [b][/b] and so forth intact, also doesn't render smilies like :). It requires more keystrokes than the [b][/b] trick, but if you have lots of smilies you don't want to render in a chatlog, you can just stick a [noparse] at the top and a [/noparse] at the bottom and the whole thing will be image-free without having to track down every single one.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
