-In Synchronet, the recognition and application of Message Markup Codes may be enabled on a per-sub-board (message area) basis. The default behavior is currently **not** to parse and apply Markup Codes in displayed message text.+In Synchronet, the recognition and application of Message Markup Codes may be enabled/disabled/configured on a per-sub-board (message area) basis. The default new sub-board configuration is to parse and apply the effects of Markup Codes in displayed message text, but not display the codes themselves (hide them from view).
  
 When the parsing/display of the Markup Codes is enabled in the configuration, the sysop has the additional option to hide (not display) the Markup Codes themselves. If "false positives" is a problem (the unintended stylization of messages), rather than completely disabling the feature, showing the Markup Codes in combination with the stylized text may provide a good compromise. When the parsing/display of the Markup Codes is enabled in the configuration, the sysop has the additional option to hide (not display) the Markup Codes themselves.
