Dear BBCODE Masters

Why do people hate BBCODE so much?

And on the flipside, why does /prog/ love it so much?

Because it's just HTML with uglier tags.

Because /prog is a bunch of retards jumping on the bandwagon.

[tag] is uglier than <tag> ?

They're essentially the same thing, you know this, right?

You're like one of these people who would see nothing wrong with throwing your whole meal into a blender before eating it since it's essentially the same thing.

That analogy makes no sense because (a) you're talking about aesthetics and (b) no self-respecting programmer would leave < > un-escaped. Not to mention, you can make up your own BBCODE tags such as the spoiler tag. Instead of creating a huge mess with HTML. I suppose you could do the same with escaped HTML, but then you've completely missed the point of allowing HTML tags in the first place.
