THE NEW Miscellaneous Talk That Doesn't Deserve A New Thread Thread Thread (Part 3)

Unless it was an oxygenless iron rich planet, it would have to be. In a world without oxygen, I believe Iron Breathers could get fairly big and complex, and would not care about light. Too bad most iron breathing organisms are oxygen intolerant.

You are still pretty close to the goalpost of 5K posts…

Seems like forum users are finally discovering that the raw post format is actually markdown (with bbcode extensions).

# A title

is a standard way to make a section heading in markdown.

I’m sure everyone would lose their mind if I linked the actual syntax for what all you can do in markdown.
