Why can't I start a new paragraph in my comments?

I know it's not just me because I see other people adding lines between their sentences. When I go to comment to a post, whether I do a quick reply, advanced, or start new topic I cannot get it to let me add any spaces in between my paragraphs. I have to run my whole thought together into one lump of a comment. Granted I don't have the best sentence structure and grammar but I do like to break up my topics a little into paragraphs so it's easier for everyone reading my posts. Is it some newbie thing that until I make a certain amount of posts I don't get that option or is there something in my settings I need to turn on? I find it quite frustrating (yeah I know, a weird thing to find frustrating)

I just have a laptop. As you said, hitting enter does nothing for me either.

If you hit that little light switch looking thing in top left corner on your reply, you can.

Thats also how you are able to post videos from You tube too.

I have to keep switching it back and forth b/c to use the emoticons or back space more than oncs can give you troubls.

Hope that helps you!

Ahhhh, thanks for that advice. I am new to the forum and it drove me crazy that I couldn't create a new paragraph on my home computer.

Thanks,

Ron
