Post formatting consumes characters

Posts appear to now be interpreted as markdown, so there are lots of instances of broken answers since not everyone properly uses code tags. For example, if I had posted an unformatted props.conf on the old site, it now looks like:

[sample]

INDEXEDEXTRACTIONS = csv
SHOULDLINEMERGE = False
TIMEFORMAT = %Y%m%d
TIMEPREFIX = ^
MAXTIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 8
MAXDAYS_AGO=10000s
