Post Text Boxes

Don't use them.

Seriously K2, that one you put in the tournament topic? It doesn't scroll sideways and cuts off the right side of the text.
Also, try reading that on a phone, extremely difficult and loads slower. SOME of us are having to use mobile devices.

I disagree, I think it looks nice, and most formal RP forums encourage it's usage. Also, the forum wasn't designed for mobile use, we need a mobile version of the site.

Even outside of mobile. You CAN'T sidescroll. You made it too small it doesn't wrap the last word.

It doesn't sidescroll, so it is difficult to read. Please do find a new box, or fix the box you're using. Some of us are forced to almost, if not outright, exclusively use mobile devices with the site, like myself.
Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.

I also disagree. Words overlap on the top and I personally find that annoying.
