Alignment Issue

Giving my hand at using BBC/making my RT look 'fancy' as opposed to just plain text.

Currently trying to use the 'Table' Feature but having an issue (as seen below).

Why does each 'column' shift ever downwards? I want all the headers to be in the same alignment.



Code:
[TABLE]
[TR]
[TD][LEFT][B]About Me:[/B][/LEFT]

[*][LEFT]MST but open to people from all TimeZones[/LEFT]
[*][LEFT]2 - 4+ Paragraphs Per Post[/LEFT]

With more content in the first column, you lose justification across the table. I added some filler space in the other two to balance them out.

Ah. I wasn't aware that it was justified across the table.

I may have to rethink this endeavor then! Thanks for the help.
 
One workaround is to have 3 separate tables that you combine using float tags. That way the columns don't depend on each other for alignment.

Not a fan of that look. I think I'll either scratch the table look entirely or make the columns all the same size.
 
you can also just make the headers their own separate table row.

e.g.

header1header 2header3
