It seems that whenever anyone suggests any changes to PM, there are a lot of responses saying that nothing is wrong with the way things are. If someone wants to make the site more user-friendly in terms of markup in posts, CSS, or whatever, they are often told that if people want that, there are ways they can implement those things on their own. I've noticed examples of both in this thread.

When I have time, I enjoy trying to help answer people's problems here. I like PerlMonks. Nevertheless, it can be a less than welcoming place both in terms of user-friendliness and (sometimes) user's friendliness.
