More like a feature request, but even though there's a nice button in the input text area, new users don't seem to realize it and they usually end up bloating their question with unformatted text, which is in a lot of cases very hard to read. Is there a better way to have them use the preformatted text feature?

What I can think of (not sure how practical these are though):

  • Make the button larger
  • Add a text, blink it (too classic)?
  • Run a smart script to detect inline code that's not preformatted?

8 years ago asked a question Sort users by the number of questions they asked

Is there a way on askbot-based forum to sort the registered users by the number of questions they asked? I'm not an admin of any forum so query on the web I/F is preferred.

I've already had to switch my account on their site from Google to Yahoo when Google's account was disabled a few years ago. Switching again breaks the concept of accumulating karma as a contribution.
