They are fun. The subsequent set of characters go to text size

If you decide to do it, do it tastefully...

Marquee? Don't. It makes buyers run away

Nothing moving, flashing, or in all caps. Or horrible contrasting colors.

At one point I had a marquee that contained special message that buyers could
use for a 15% discount, but I set it so slow that it would take 5+ minutes for
it to show up But no one ever found it

It was a fun experiment in concept, but boring in execution lol

Nubs has replied said the fbi agent monitoring nubs as he stared at an imaginary
pizza thru his window in the middle of the night after trying to debug some code
only to realize after multiple hours he was on a different page which was why
no updates were taking effect
