It appears the current Google Form for nominations of medals is set to SHORT ANSWER.
If it were changed to the PARAGRAPH option it would look better to the person doing the typing in the space/the person doing the nominating.

Short answer space:

Paragraph option space:

Paragraph. Short answer keeps the answer all on one line, which makes it hard to edit and/or proofread.

Poll added. Please vote.
Thanks!

@BDutch I too have always disliked that space/not being able to see what I was writing.
I never knew there was an option to change it.
Thanks for making me learn something new.

I changed it to paragraph and will see how it formats to the sheet I use. I get paragraphs in my sheet from the nomination form, so I didn't realize the form had the short answer.

And while I am here....
Remember. when nominating-----
-Spelling is crucial. Many members have very similar usernames. If you need to, copy and paste their username into the box.
-Please don't put @ at the beginning of their name. It makes it hard to sort. I have to go and remove them all.
-If they change their username, please let me know so I can edit my database. Name changes don't carry over.
-Please make sure your nominee doesn't already have the medal you are nominating them for.

Thanks for changing it!
I filled in a couple of answers on my fake Google forms so I can see the answers and how they looked and they actually look the exact same when you're viewing the results.

@DuckLady
I just nominated someone and the form was not in paragraph form for this question. I couldn't see what I was typing...
