There's nothing wrong with the rich text you just need to learn how to use it!

You can reply at the bottom of a thread if you want to avoid doing any formatting.

I'm not sure what the backspace thing is, but if you want to add a new line without a blank line then you want shift+enter

I didn't know about the shift enter thing. The backspace thing is when you're just pressing backspace multiple times to delete a word. When you backspace the last letter it automatically backspaces the space before the word. It also doesn't seem to happen every time (or I got when it happens wrong) since it's something I can never reproduce on purpose, only when I'm actually typing a post. Actually, typing this and trying it, I sound a bit crazy now but I know it happens, it happens to me all the time! :-p

As for using the the box at the bottom of the screen, I usually do except for when I quote and edit.

There's also the quote boxes. They are a pain to edit if you only want a certain part of a quote or want to delete some of the not needed nested quotes. I have a much easier time just using the quote tags.


 your not crazy twestern, and if you are, i'm sure the Rich Text Editor drove you to it!! The auto whitespace editing (inserting/deleting spaces, not end-line/paragraph) of the Rich Text Reply has to be the most iritating thing ever. I also hate how when you hit backspace, sometimes it decides it wants to delete the whole word. Some text editors (like the old yahoo one) alowed you to either use html or rich text editor with a selection right on the compose e-mail page. It would be great if we had something like that.
