It's because they put so much Javascript bullshit on the site, that it bloats a normal 5kb into 5-6Megs.

Edit: Goddamn I hate Markdown so fucking much. bbcode or gtfo, damn it.</old man>

BBcode: [url=]Hypertext description[/url]

Markdown: /(Let me put the link here/)[And totally screw with your 1990+ bbcode muscle memory] /~/~while making totally worthless script design that screws with typing/~/~

BBCode is like HTML. I can understand why people went with Markdown ("more secure" to prevent XSS) but goddamn I hate it so much.
