Resolved Whenever I drag-select a specific word to bold/italics/etc it, it also bolds everything in the entire post after that word.

Makes it kind of annoying to do spot changes in posts. Happens intermittently, like, its happening when I'm trying to edit a post in one thread even after refreshing it, but its not happening while I write this OP. Also does the same thing with changing font size as well. Not sure if its a cache thing or just something happening to me or maybe something that happens when a post gets really long x.x

This is a known problem and it's something up with the coding, so it may not be fixed soon.

Basically, what's happening is that when you go back and highlight text, then change the size or add formatting, it adds the bb code language twice: one for the actual bit you're formatting, then for the rest of the body of the post.

To fix this, either highlight the affected text and unformat it, or click the gear-shaped icon on the toolbar to go into bb code editor and manually remove the extra coding.

It drives me to distraction as well, for what it is worth.

Something to note, you can also just write the BB code yourself in the editor. No need to actually bring up the plain text BB code editor.

Thanks. I've been finding it happening frequently in my posts. Will try the cog fix next time it occurs.
