    indentI believe here should be a tab button so that you can use tab to start paragraphs the correct way (with the tab in the beginning) while writing something, or making threads.
    indentYes, there is the "Indent" option in the edit section of a comment or thread but the problem is that if you click it, it moves your whole paragraph or chunk of writing one margin over instead of one tab on the first sentence.
    indentWhen/if you click "tab" on your keyboard, thinking it will make a tab for your paragraph, it automatically directs your mouse to the "Tags" section at the bottom of creating a thread.
    indentThis is quite annoying to me and I'd like it if there was a "tab" button/option or we could just click "tab" on our keyboards without redirecting us to the "Tags" section at the bottom of creating a thread.
    (Quoting Clxrity here) When you're writing a story in school, do they ask you to indent your paragraphs? Here's an example:

    indent
    Hello! My name is Nala. I like .... bla bla bla.... blalalalaalalallalllllaaaaaa. yeah yeah yeah.... i love swimming and ice cream ahahahaha, yeah eyaheioaewre....... Boo blabala honey boo boo, shrek yeah yeah.

    ^ Notice the space at the beginning? That's an indent. It's a way to indicate the start of a new paragraph, and usually you indent by pressing *tab* before the first word. That affect does not work when making a thread on the forums. (End of Clxrity's quote.)

    But here is what it looks like while using the "indent" option.


    Hello! My name is nala. I like .... bla bla bla bla.... blalalalalalaballaaa... yeah yeah yeah, balalala bla bla bla bla..... yah yeahe blah. Once upon a time I found a purple banana, blablabla turns out it was bert that had frostbite blablalala..... yeah so and so I went to the store today.... blablabla, yeah yeah yeah, found a frozen pizza that had shrimp on it, blablabla and a bunny ate it.
    Do you see how it moves the WHOLE text (instead of just the first sentence) one margin over?

    Yes, yes, yes, and yes. I usually type space when indenting, but the forums sees it as empty space and deletes/removes the indent. Support for sure.

    Rabbits are small mammals in the familyLeporidae of the order Lagomorpha, found in several parts of the​
    world. There are eight different genera in the family classified as rabbits, including the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), cottontail rabbits (genusSylvilagus; 13 species), and the Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi, an endangered species on Amami Ōshima, Japan). There are many other species of rabbit, and these, along with pikas and hares, make up the order Lagomorpha. The male is called a buck and the female is a doe; a young rabbit is a kitten or kit.

    This is what you mean? How when you copy and paste your text you cannot indent just the first line? This is actually possible. You just need a little knowledge of BB code. First indent the whole paragraph. Next hit the icon here: [​IMG]
    You will need to get rid of the [/Indent] Tag at the end of the paragraph and add it to the end of your first line, which in this case looked like this:
    [​IMG]
    Then click the little link that says "use rich text editor" and you should see it looks as it should.

    The issue is the tab key is not able to be used in these text boxes. The tab key is already used by the web browser. So realistically players who want to intent the first line in their paragraphs will need to do similar. It takes some playing around I know.
    So im neutral. If there is a way to make it easier for users then I hope it can be implemented.
