Sending notes is a bit of a pain. Not all users have usernames with memorable spelling.
I'd suggest that when a user clicks "Notes" on a page with a characters menu at the bottom then it shows a dialog where names can be selected.
Implementation. Rather than user colorbox with its iframe implementation, I'd use the username data already collected in /fixedGameMenu.php and put it in a hidden div - then style that like colorbox. Why have an extra call to the server when we already have the data?
javascript/markItUp/sets\bbcode/set.js defines the current commands. I wonder whether perhaps we should have two different toolbars - one for games and one for everywhere else. Game forums are different and a game toolbar helps emphasise this - I image there might be other things we might add to a game toolbar.
