5sides has copied and pasted the text from somewhere, and so it has imported its own formatting. In the visual editor it will just show as text, but if you switch to the source editor it will show all the wiki text that is changing the formatting. If you want the font to use the sites default settings, you have to remove this custom wiki text which is over-writing it. Press edit on the comment, then switch to source view (the eyeball -  second button along bottom of edit box - is the visual editor, while the first button - the two square brackets - is the source editor - you can use these buttons to switch back and forth between the 'code' and the 'display' of the text to see how changes work.

Because 5sides message has been copied in from somewhere (a browser window probably, though perhaps word) every single paragraph has imported formatting, so you have to remove them all, which is a bit of a pain. Just remove everything that isn't 5sides actual text (which you can always see in visual mode) if you are not used to looking at wiki text.

But if you want to learn about wiki text see: Help:Wikitext

I've removed the formatting now from that particular post. If you to any post in that thread and access the history from the options, you can see my edit and what exactly it changed by pressing on 'diff' next to that edit in the history.
