How do I make answers format into paragraphs in the new YA?

When I type, I just get a block of text. This sometimes makes getting my point across a little difficult.

    If this is happening when you edit your answer, just refresh the page and the formatting will return.

    If it is happening when you first type your answer, that is a different problem. As you can see, mine formats properly with paragraphs. If that is your issue, try the standard fix first: sign out, clear cache, cookies & temp files, restart. Be sure java and flash are updated, or try a different browser to see if it is browser specific.

    Finally, if you still have an issue, use the GEAR at the top right to reach the Suggestion Board and post it as a BUG on the pinned thread there for such issues.

    Hello Scott, That was a sarcastic and completely judgmental Answer, when you do not fully understand the situation i am in. I am not living off the Government! I worked and Paid taxes! and the amount i Receive is based off how much i've worked and paid in Taxes! Due to my Union Contract so im not living off your money Missy (Purposely incorrect). I make Great Money With my Job! I love my Job! No one likes being Unemployed! Im not sitting on my Butt looking for hands outs Im actually bettering myself because i do not wish to work for anyone. I have a family that im supporting! jobs are not hiring with great benefits and better pay they way my job does. its just this down time due to sonority ranks. Which im moving up to year round employment! ive always worked multi jobs this is the first year this has happen. So i did not ask for your Judgmental Remarks i asked for him with my situation as it stand! Thank you Very much!
