Yeah, and I seldom create new topics anyway so it's not much of a problem for me personally.
The biggest problem is with beginners that might be new to this site that have to deal with these issues.
That's why I try to not be harsh when people ask questions without using code tags for example.

I have a "boiler-plate" block of text I copy'n'paste requesting new people learn how to use code tags, with links for instructions how to use them thar' tags.
