I use IE and I can't for the life of me find features I could swear used to be on there. There are no quick menu options for text-editing (like the old bold, italic or underlined buttons). Also, when I edit a previously posted comment, the editing window stays on the same page, with no text editing buttons/sliders either. (EDIT: Despite there being an option to "go advanced", it doesn't add the above mentioned features, although it does go into another window.)

I remember many of the important ones, like spoiler, quote, bold, italic, image hyperlinking, etc. but some of them - like the exact ratio for text size and so on, I have no idea how to find now.

Is this something experienced by anyone else. :scratch

See if this helps:
By enhanced text I mean the bar of text options above a post you're writing, but I'm sure you have all that memorized. :DWhat? You don't have the bbcode memorized? OK, fine.

Settings (in the top right corner)

Under My Settings, you'll see three options. Click General Settings.

This is where you can set a bunch of stuff. Time zone, pm emails, pm pop ups, how you view your forums (though this might be standardized for everyone). Down at the very very bottom, under Miscellaneous, you'll see three buttons, for Standard, Enhanced, and something else. Choose Standard or Enhanced so you get that bar of text-fancifying stuff. :D

Remember to save.
