[BBCode] Twitter

You could do it on the full URL. Not on the others because it's scary-easy to trip over other things... like email addresses and partial URLs.

Not savvy? Thats why there's a "help" button on the menu ;)
Okay, I'll see about auto-embed.

You try telling that to 60+ year old guys who type with 1 finger lol. I'm just saying some people don't even know what BBC is or how to use it. They do know how to copy and paste though.

If you're implying about the hashtags you could simply enter in the full URL for that.

Not just hashtags but also the @ references. In fact in terms of auto embed, you're pretty much JUST talking the full URL only.
You don't have to know about bbcode explicitly, you can do it through the buttons above the posting area, which does the hard work of bbcode (the actual code) for you.

There are no buttons in quick reply and I don't see the difference between bbc'ing it or embeding it. Isn't there some type of code that would automatically wrap the link in the bbc?
