Man, why do I gotta f*ckin MLA format my posts on most subs like I'm writing an essay? It's insane the level of contrivence and micromanaging of posts for a god forsaken message board bro. "Oh you need to put a speckle on a pubic hair here or else the post gets deleted 🤓☝🏻" and then idiot sycophants that suck moderator dong act like you're the moron. Hate this place. Need some normal people.

What's MLA? Care to elaborate?

It's a guildine for academic writing. OP is likely complaining that they get asked to use paragraphs and spell things correctly, since the majority of MLA is in regards to pages, headers, margins, citing quotes, etc.

I wish what you said was more common, so many reddit posts I see are barely literate trash
