This is a new account. My previous accounts here totally more than 45,000 posts. Just go looking around for the name 'Arantor'.
Here's my problem. It was stated that the WYSIWYG editor could do this. If you weren't sure what that was, why not ask what 'WYSIWYG editor' is or how to activate it? It's been in 2.0 for years. But instead, you asked whether Word support bbcodes, which to me sounds like just ignoring what was said to you.
This is why I get so frustrated, and I'm sorry you're getting the rough end of it (today marks the second anniversary of the passing of my father, so I'm in a more crabby mood than usual) - but when information is given that you don't understand, it's great to ask. But when information is given and promptly seemingly ignored... what am I supposed to think?

Guys guys guys, no fighting, please.
@arrowtotheknee: I am sorry for you and your father, I honestly didn't know - However, I can agree with meetdilip at some points.
He's just like me - He's trying to follow up the support in the topic whilst trying to solve the problem on his own. That's why it seems like "information is ignored", but in fact the user is just posting his own suggestion, fast-forwarding over the previous information and as such skipping some of it.
And, if I may ask anyway, why are you creating new accounts all over the place? This is confusing lots of members, to be honest. Somebody comes in, looks like a new person but in fact is somebody with a lot of experience which has been on this forum for way longer..?
(I'm sorry this is going off-topic, if you don't want this discussion anymore, just tell us so we can continue with the real subject :))

And you like offering suggeestions that get ignored?
As for accounts, I deleted the last ones out if frustration at how things were going, came back to answer one person's question and ended up getting sucked into helping more out of pity.

I never said that -- I said, that if my suggestion gets ignored for one reason or another, I don't get mad, because it's pointless and will just give you the attitude of "king know-it-all so don't ignore me". I'm not telling you this because I like starting fights -- I'm telling you this because I've seen several people look at you like that.

I've had frustration on this account too, but I never ended up deleting.
Forgetting by destroying is never the good way to solve your problems, y'know.
Arantor:
Thing is, I'm choosing to spend my time offering support, so when it gets ignored, it isn't about "knowing it sll", it's another reminder of how much time I've wasted trying to help people and that I shouldn't have bothered.
