Problem Details
Short description: scroll BBCode doesn't render in TSR app
Steps to reproduce:
* Navigate to a post (or make a post) that uses scroll BBCode (the post I encountered was about urm... custard!!) on the TSR app.
* Observe

Expected result: It should render (so custard, in all it's gloriousness would scroll across a post).
Actual Result: It displays the escaped version (/[scroll]).

Additional Information
Please fix this so I can fully appreciate custard on the mobile app!!

CheeseIsVeg describes how the post should be rendered:

what you see in the post number of eighty four
it is a remarkable work of art

the art consists of moving letters in alternating size 7 font of either the dark green colour or the dark yellow colour
this beautiful text-based artwork speeds across the screen (eventually) at a rate of 3 x scroll bb code functionality units

(This is a serious report, albeit the light nature)

Hi. Thanks for flagging this. We don't support all the BBCode tags in the app yet, as you have spotted. We haven't added scroll support in the react thread pages yet either.

I don't think we have any immediate plans to add the less widely used BBCode tags in the app but I will pass this on to the product team and let them know you asked for scroll. I don't know if they like custard, which could affect the decision.
