We recently enabled [this plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/unformatted-code-detector-theme-component/112773) across the forums.  
What it means is you will get a pop up if you try to enter what looks like code but isn't formatted as such. We appreciate this might be seen as an annoyance for some users, but proper formatting dramatically improves readability, which makes providing assistance a lot easier.

It also means the code can be easily copied out to test in other places.

Please let us know if you have feedback 🙂
