Looking at SamueD2 I see it says Writeups: 15 , which warrants a "/msg" and/or a --, especially since unless you go to User Settings, and turn on the "No Forced Preview" setting, you will be forced to preview.

I really see no reason for editors to go around adding <CODE> tags to posts of users who've been around long enough to know better.

As for caring, by the time I read the post the formatting was fixed, and the question still not answered. Looking at the previous questions asked by SamueD2 I can see that he's still working on his database problem. I personally don't care to read or answer any more questions by SamueD2, but I'm feeling a little grumpy.

I did -- him for being lazy. If you want help, be nice and format your posts properly, it's the least you could do.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
