Italica Uber Alles

When I use the QUOTE feature, my own comments are put in - italics - which I don’t like. How can I stop that?

When editing the quote, be sure not to disturb the italic tags, and that for each "[ i ]" tag (which marks the beginning of italic text), there's a
"[ / i ]" tag to close it.
I recommend experimenting with the tags and using the
Preview Post button often to check the formatting of your text.
Also, I strongly recommend composing posts in a word processor separate from your browser in case there's a problem previewing or submitting your
post.
For more on that, see:
