There's this trick to customize your club comments on your page with BBcode. When we're done you'll be able to customize your comment colors and add some font effects. As far as I know right now it customizes all your club comments the same way. Its different then the usual ways we use tags and codes on our profile. Keep in mind this means we will do things differently, so follow exactly what I post here.
First step: Go to Club Description box.
This is the box where you edit your club's BBcode (stuff that goes under Information). It's accessible via "Edit Club Details".
Second step: Enter this code. note: if you're simply trying to change the color or spoiler your comments only, then skip to the shortcuts at the bottom.
Copy and paste this code posted below into the box. From now on this code and any changes you make to it have to be at the very bottom. It won't be colorful when you paste it (the reason for it being colorful here I'll get to later). When you save it, it fully customizes your profile comments. However, don't save it just yet! It contains effects you probably want to change, and it can't be treated like other codes for your profile. It'll be easiest if you just enter this now, and we work backwards narrowing down to your desired set up taking out customization we don't want, rather than adding them one at a time (trust me on this).
Right now, if you saved this code your comments would look like this but you probably don't want your comments exactly like that so we'll make changes in step three!
Third step: Make changes.
Look at the steps below and find the ones that match the changes you want and follow those steps. When you're asked to delete tags, be careful to only delete those tags and not part of another tag. I separated the tags in the original code by color to make them easy to identify. Also, you're not being asked to move any tags around, so don't do so. That can mess up this whole thing. Leave them in their original order: all you should be doing is deleting tags, changing the color from red to another, or changing the number after size. Don't leave spaces in between the tags either.
To change the color from red to another, go to the tag [color=red] (also labeled in red) above and after the equal sign enter the color name or HTML color you want your comment text to be!
To remove colored text altogether, find and remove both the [color=red] and [/color] tags, but be very careful not to remove any other parts. (also labeled in red above). Remember they're also in two different spots, not side by side, delete them both.
To move the comments to the center find and remove both the second [right] tag and second [/right] tag only (you see them labeled in purple in the example). Don't remove the other [right] tags, labeled in blue.
To move the comments to the left where they are by default, find and remove the tags [right], [/right], [right] and [/right] (labeled in purple and blue).
To remove the italic style of the font, find and remove both tags [/i] and [i] (labeled in green) from the code. Italic style is when your text is slanted.
To remove the boldness from the font, find and remove both the tags [/b] and [b] (labeled in orange) from the code. Bold style is when your text is darker and heavier.
To take your profile comments out of a spoiler, find and remove both the [/spoiler] and [spoiler] tags in pink. If you leave them in, ppl will need to click the spoiler button at the bottom of your page to reveal your comments. This is useful for shortening the length of your page.
To remove the underlines from the font, find and remove the tags [/u] and [u] (labeled in gray) from the code.
Finally to resize the header's font that says "displaying comments" change the number in this tag in your code [size=150] to whatever size you like. 50 is half the size the default font. 200 would be twice the size of default font. If you want the default size set it to 100.
Final step: Saving and editing later.
After you take the tags you don't want- you can save it with the blue button labeled Save Changes found underneath the About Me box where you first entered the code! You may want to save the entire text in the box for now to a Notepad or Word document on your computer. Remember, in the future, or even now, the codes get scrambled in that box when you go back to them later as mentioned in the disclaimer at the very top of this post. Saving the scrambled version will mess up your profile. So for now open a new tab and go to your profile, and see how it looks from there.
If you're happy with this, you can close the editing page, but if you want to make more changes do them now while the page is open. In the future you might go back and find it scrambled. But you can always use the code you just saved to go back to your original edit, or use the original code posted way above (multicolored one) and start over removing tags.
Example of edited comment code: Here's an example of me editing the code. I narrow the code down to this:
[/center][/right][/i][size=200][color=green][center][/color][right][i]
See I took out bold text tags, the underlines, resized the header a little, and moved it to the center. Now it looks like this:
Simple colorized comments (shortcut)
If you just want to put your comments in color and not deal with the rest of the glitch, add this to the bottom and change the color as needed.
Simple spoiler-ing comments (shortcut)
If you just want to put your comments in spoiler and not deal with the rest of the glitch, add this to the bottom.
One more trick that's optional, you can add [code] tags to this to get a unique font effect, normally intended to differentiate normal text from another. I know of no other way to change your font family type at the moment. It would look like this (with huge spaces):
To get this, add [/code] after the first center tag which is [/center] (colored black in the full code above) and then add [code] before the second center tag which is [center]. This will give you the code style text.
This is pretty much all you can to your comment text that I know of, check back regularly to see if more people post tricks to enhance your comments! If things get scrambled or go wrong, its best to start over from the beginning or use your saved codes.

Here's a color guide by Wafu that gives you examples of all the available word colors for you to easily customize your comments and posts with the color you want!: http://myanimelist.net/blog.php?eid=736085
I just realized the code doesn't work when you want to center the text you forgot to say that you have to change the first blue [*/right] into [*/center] (without the *)

lol I didn't forget anything and no- you can center the text without doing that. You just remove the purple tags and leave the blue ones alone like I said.
For example this will give you centered text, notice I removed the purple tags.
You can change that blue tag to say center but its unnecessary unless some code is wrong in your edit box. And if I had told ppl to change it to center it'd be extra and make explaining the rest of the changes a little harder. You're adding extra steps but it might be cuz there's some extra code or something in your CSS thats interfering with controlling the glitch in the usual way, or you might have gone about it wrong removing a tag you weren't supposed to.

Maybe. If you learned the glitch really well a way might become clear. It might be really easy for all we know.
kisekipurin said: how do you change the comment's font size?
There isn't a way with these tags that I found, and I never looked into this any further and I don't plan to anytime soon. Maybe someone will delve into it more and find a way for you.

I remember there was a way to put your comments in spoilers, but I can't seem to do it again. Can anyone help me out?
(Extreme) example here.
*edit* Nevermind, I figured out how to do it. You put [/spoiler] before [/center] and [spoiler] before [center].
Any help here? I've tried this but only the recent blog entries on my prof have changed, which I'm totally fine with but my comments are still the same.

Here's the bbcode: [/*center][*size=80][*center]
that is because that specific code only effects the header saying "coments showing * of 15"

Ohhh, so I gotta disable my recent blog entries. I see, thanks.

no..that does not matter. The code simply won't change font size of the coments

You sure about that? Then why is there a size tag in the first place? :/
Edit: Oh my bad, checked the size tag stated by Shishio which can only change the header. That sucks

it allows ypu to change the size of the comment section header
Oh wow! Thanks to guide, I was able to customize my profile. It looks wonderful now!
Btw..I didnt want to change the size of my fonts because it changed a lot of stuff. So I set to to default, or rather simply left it blank after the '=" but when I clicked 'save' and check my profile, '[size=]' still remained so I deleted that bit altogether. And it was gone. Just wanted to mention that.

Ah fair enough. Just stating what happened to me. Plus changing the size to 12 really messed everything up. Well just for me, so removing it altogether was the better idea.

This topics a couple years old and maybe its different now, pretty sure the default font size is 100 for BBcode now. Or maybe I screwed up then and thought 12 was the default font size for BBcode, since its that for CSS, probably (font-size:)
I have it set like this. It worked a week ago, but now only the bold and italics are showing. I have tried changing the colors to the basic ones like red/blue, but those don't work either.

Go to the Bbcode section linked at the top of OP and find the topic that lets you post BBcode for others to copy
R.I.P to that fancy code :( I don't know what on earth is MAL thinking for removing that bunch of codes. It's one of the essential needs in clubs and profiles.
