Today I worked out the number of teams of each race in blackbox as a percentage of total. I wanted to put it into the forums. I tried writing it out using the space bar to keep the columns straight, but that didn't work, so I decided to put it in a table. So I asked in chat...

[18:13] <Espionage> Does anybody know how to put a table in the forums?
[18:15] <person who wanted to give advice one> it accepts HTML
[18:15] *** AoP-Vimes quit (Quit )
[18:15] <Espionage> cool, so how do I do that?
[18:16] <Espionage> or where can I find a help file on that?
[18:16] <helpful person 2> http://lmgtfy.com/?q=tables+in+html
[18:17] <Espionage> thank you
[18:17] <person who wanted to give advice one> or this: http://fumbbl.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=9617

3 and a half hours of no success later I look in the forum FAQ too see what I'm doing wrong, and find this:' Can I use HTML?
That depends on whether the administrator allows you to; they have complete control over it. If you are allowed to use it, you will probably find only certain tags work.' It seems the table ones don't for me.

If anybody knows a simple way to put columns into the forum, please comment, with directions to a guide for beginners.
