Someone, maybe multiple people have been sending me the same question on my request sheet for a couple weeks now, and I'm just gonna make this so I don't have to see the "Why do you use pluses and parenthesis when it's more efficient in tokens to use markdown?" question AGAIN.
I'm not really annoyed by it, I just think it's funny that someone (or multiple people) are so passionate about my bot formatting that they ask me over and over.
Reason Stabs is "still making bots the old way":
I'm blind as fuck. My eyesight is horrible, especially on screens (yes I have and wear glasses) and I need very clear differentiating lines in between lines of text or I will be completely lost. Because, lets remember, I have to spend most of my time proofreading without formatting!
[Teaser for the next bot that's coming out]
This is much easier for me to read in large lists:
-
Occupation: (Enforcer for Hyperion + Mixed Martial Artist [Underground fighting rings])
-
Overview: (To strangers, Dami is that effortlessly confident, nonchalantly hot guy who struts around like he has nothing to lose. To those who know Hyperion, he's the dog on the leash, the guy who jokes around one second then is clocking you with a right hook the next. To {{user}}, the drag queen he sees on the regular, Dami is the straightest acting gay guy who has more interest in {{user}}'s dick than his fake boobs.)

Tags: (The two faced enforcer + "Straight" gay guy + The reckless enforcer)

It's less tokens. I know the whole argument for changing to the markdown style is that it's way less tokens and easier for the bot to digest, but in my experience (And for you to see as well) it ends up being more tokens for just the formatting. The difference is barely anything, but it's still a difference!
You can check out the token counts right there in the personality! [PERSONALITY] (132 tokens) is the markdown style, [INTRO] (114 tokens) is my style!
