It seems to be interpreting bullets before bold, if * is the first character on a line it always makes it a bullet, if * isn't the first character on the line it seems to work fine. I've been using HTML tags to bold the first word on a line.
Pre and verbatim both work for me, though.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
i can't get the * to bold text
BOLD always gives me an bulleted BOLD. _ does, _* is fine too.
also <pre> or <verbatim> don't work either.

Yes, this is a known problem with the block parser - inline parser interaction. It annoys me also.
But I'm not sure if I can come up with a fix, which will not destroy anything else.
And I don't really want to rewrite the parser that much.
