Hmmmmm. It's not doing it to me.

In VBulletin, we have a code we have use to post on VBulletin using paragraphs (like you see on FAQ). It's "<p>." Not sure why your posts are doing that.

Anyone else having this problem?

Which post editor are you using?

The codes to VB are pretty much universal.

If you are using the wrong post editor for the "less savvy" you have to actually code in your paragraphs, as spaces do not count in markup languages.

You can switch that out by going to your User CP and changing the setting. I can post photos how to do it if you are "really not savvy."

OK, here we go

Up on top in the menu (in blue) you will see "USER CP." Click on it.

The screen that pops up will have a menu (in blue) down the left side. Click on "Edit Options."

On the screen that pops up, all the way down at the bottom is a pulldown menu under "Message Editor Interface.'

Select "Standard Editor - Extra Formatting Controls" in the pull down.

Then click on the button underneath that which says "Save Options."

Let me know if you can follow that, and if not I will post photos.

Not at all I would just like to see you get more involved in conversations. I could pick over 100 post that were nonsense. It is funny at times but then it also gets annoying!

Good Example is this post. Someone needs help and they have to read through the BUllshit to get to the help

I agree 100%. It's also a TOS violation.
