[...] and clutter the post editor with extra buttons.
There is already a bunch of bb-code tags which don't appear as buttons in the editor....

Can they still do that? O.O i thought it was disabled by now
Admins can. I don't think there's a problem with that, seeing as how the same people could just delete most of Omnimaga if they wanted >.>

I think if a lot of these BBCodes aren't getting used, we don't really have a reason to keep them around. They can make post submission slower and clutter the post editor with extra buttons.

This is true. There are probably some that we could get rid of.

I think that some official tags don't necessarily have buttons either, but since barely anyone ever used the Vimeo and Niconico tags, I bet they could be removed if they ever cause issues. Most people use Youtube anyway.

I wonder how secure is the [Netham45] tag, since it doesn't need to be closed? :P

The XKCD one in particular doesn't seem to have much of a point since all it does is create a link to an XKCD comic, and it's not much harder (actually slightly less work IMHO) to just use [url=http://xkcd/][/url].
