This is a nice idea in theory, but unfortunately, there's two major issues.

First of all, you can't expect good results if you copy formatting from Microsoft Word and paste it into a MyBB post editor. Microsoft makes it easy to copy and paste formatting from Word to other Microsoft Office products, like PowerPoint or Outlook. However, Microsoft's formatting rarely plays nice with non-Microsoft WYSIWYG editors - usually, you'll wind up with some weird artifacts or a completely broken design.

The other problem is MyBB's post editor doesn't support tables. There might be a way to add them, but it sounds like it's fairly complex and can mess up your post layout if a table is improperly coded.

As a workaround, you could take a screenshot of your table and insert the screenshot into your post. Text as images isn't ideal for accessibility or SEO, but it would preserve your formatting.

As @Q-Nova mentioned, linking to an external Web site or a Google Doc would be a good option.

Or you could reformat your table so that it works nicely with MyBB's MyCode. Maybe something like this:

Name: Mario
Element: Mushroom
Rarity: ****
Notes: Appears in lots of Nintendo games

Then repeat for other characters.
Course clear! You got a card.
