I always end up with a really floppy bracelet but I see everyone who uses the same string as me (loops and threads) gets straight results? How do I achieve this?

"floppy" to me would mean that the bracelet is soft and not sturdy. It does not necessarily contradict with the bracelet being straight.

Things to do for a bracelet to be more stiff and also more straight:
- consistent knotting tension, knotting tighter will make the bracelet stiffer
- adding the straight edges technique (optional)
- try to not pull the bracelet to the sides too much while knotting
- secure your bracelet securely while knotting close to the point where you are knotting so it can't move around a lot
- after you finished, you can iron the bracelet or put it under a heavy book, you can also wet the bracelet and stretch it straight
