Style change request

   In the bbPress forums stylesheet (in the custom theme for bbPress.org, not the default theme), you have this:

   .post {
   	overflow: hidden;
   }

   Can I request that you change the value to auto, to make it heaps easier to read users' code postings (as they frequently overflow)?

   .post {
   	overflow: auto;
   }

   It seems to have been played around with in the past, the upshot being that code is overflow: auto. Good solution in my opinion, much more convenient for reading code, anyway.

   //a really reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally long line of code

   some random text
   

   //a kinda short line of code

   Yes, but people frequently forget to use the code tags for the code in their posts, leading to why I would like the whole post to be overflow: auto.

   I will pass this along Jeremy to mdawaffe in the bbdevlist! I know what you mean about the overflow! The only thing that fel64 has a point on is that if the text doesn't show up, they are more likely to use the code tags.
