So I know that there are a bunch of running campaigns going in that section of the boards, and am interested in it as a medium for my group's game.
The basic mechanics of using the boards for a game I understand well enough(I think), such as creating Aliases for characters, spoilers for hidden stuff, OOC chat in grey. Rolling... actually that one confuses me. How can you roll, and in the same post know what you rolled and be able to act accordingly in character?
Anyway, what are some of the more esoteric tricks people have used to milk extra enjoyment out of that play-by-post medium?
Tips for GM's as well as Players are welcome.

Rolling is just a command. Look down, I substitute brackets with parentheses.
(dice=Attack Roll)1d20 + 7(/dice)
Now to see it with brackets...
Attack Roll: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Edit: If you don't want to roll where the players can see...
