When do you think is the right time to use the bold, underlined italics and quotes? I mean, it's obvious you will use the quotes when quoting someone but any other time? And this would probably be annoying if you used all of them at the same time.

Best of random chance

Only to emphasize a part of text, I think it's common sense.

Bold: When showing significance of a word,
Italics: When emphasizing a word, using sarcasm, quoting a line
Underline: I use it when correcting people's grammar. I'll quote them, underline the mistakes, then correct them.

Key

italicize to put conversational emphasis.

bold for titles, headings, or emphasizing titles of things (books, movies, games, etc..)

underlining for titles, headings, or emphasizing a correction made in someone's post [in this case it can be used in conjunction with bold, if needed].

I used the underline when I'm emphasizing a single word or short phase. I use bold when I'm typing something that I think is important or to show louder typing. I use quotes when I'm quoting someone.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Only in moderation and when needed to add proper emphasis.

I don't think there is a right or wrong time?

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I want the cross out tool. :p

It's called strike-through, so that wouldn't work even if it was enabled.
