Missing WYSIWYG Option

At the My Control Panel->Edit Options-> Miscellaneous Options->Message Editor Interface, I only get the Basic Editor and the Standard Editor options.
The WYSIWYG option is not there.
Has it been disabled?

As far as I can recall it was never there.

vbulletin supports the option, but I guess it has been disabled site-wide. I wonder why.

Anyway, the FAQ is misleading, since it specifically mention the WYSIWYG option.

Thanks for pointing out the deficiency in the FAQ boazs, you are absolutely correct.

I'm pretty sure this option is missing simply because the current settings are the default settings and we saw no need to change them. I'll research this though and see what I can find out.

Thanks - I am sure WYSIWYG will be useful for many.

Just wondering if there are any news regarding this.

I'd second this! When nesting lots of URLs and formatting options and the like, it can get pretty confusing.

I [try to] maintain a list of car rental discount codes, and it can get pretty hairy trying to get everything bulleted, bolded, hyperlinked, and italicized just perfectly. Whizzy-wig would sure make it a lot nicer.
