If you are not on the first page of a thread, the first post's review is not formatted. 88ea4d71cfc04971157fbf2dff8c3458

Good catch, looks like markdown not being parsed. I'm assuming the OP didn't have backslashes before his asterisks.

//EDIT

JUst checked - you're right it's unformatted - no asterisks in OP.

This is by design. When you're on the 2nd+ page of a thread, it is meant to just show you a shortened preview of the first few sentences of the OP. We can't parse markdown because the cutoff might be mid-code block, etc.

IMO, that's what is great about Markdown. It doesn't need to be parsed in order to understand intent. It can be read as-is without looking marked up.
