How can I set the right margin for posts on a voy forum?

more options

I want to have my posts on Voy Forums to be about 4 to 5 inches wide. Now when I type a post, it fills the whole page and it's hard for people to follow. I need to set the default margin for posts. How can I do that without having to use the "Enter Key"?

Is that a public forum? Can you link to a page where some posts "wrap" normally and some do not?

On this site, if you start a line with one or more spaces, your text will be interpreted as a preformatted block, which does not wrap. On Reddit, four or more spaces will trigger that. Each site is different, so if that's the issue, it may be in the post formatting "help" for the site.

Also, beware of pasting from Microsoft Word into an online editor that might follow Word's formatting, since most documents have a width of 6 to 6.5 inches, which would be too wide for most forums.
