| Sep 18, 2012 at 16:46 | comment | added | HopelessN00b | @LieRyan. Yeah, I figured ELU.SE was probably a ---grammar Nazi--- "sensitivity-challenged," pedantic. Individual, but was more using it as an example of... differing opinions, even around here, on the "proper" use of formatting elements. | |

that formatting markdown has a specific meaning, don't use it like that some people in ELU are grammar Nazis, that's why, whoops... I generally use backticks for any verbatim text; additionally, I also use backticks for quoting in comments since blockquotes cannot be used in comments.

@MarkHenderson actually, you know what I did read? The parts with backtick higlighting and <kbd> tags. Right, which I'm now going to claim was part of my plan to make exactly that point all along. ;)

| Sep 14, 2012 at 6:30 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | All I saw was a title and a massive wall of text but the title probably told me all I really need to know about the question. The "right way"? Just follow the general trend used by other medium to high ranked members. | |

| Sep 14, 2012 at 3:38 | comment | added | Zoredache | It is easy to understand why formatting rules on ELU, and other exchanges might be different from here. It is best to stick to the norms of a specific site. | |
| Sep 14, 2012 at 3:12 | comment | added | HopelessN00b | @MarkHenderson Good to know. Maybe I'll just paste my most recent posts in as reports I have to get done for work, confident in the certainty no one will bother reading past an opening paragraph or two. | |
