Which browser are you using? I am seeing the blank line nicely in Chrome, FF4, IE9, Opera, Safari.
Update: OK, I see it in IE8. It's a standards issue then. Thanks IE. No, really.

Yeah but this is a recent problem, so what did you change that broke it in IE8?

Okay, one difference between QA and normal forums.
In QA, if I post a code snippet with white space, the white space is removed on saving. So when I edit/improve it, I see the white-space removed version.
In these forums, the white space does not render in the browser, but when I edit the post, I see my original code with the white space.
Not sure if this helps you figure out the problem but thought I'd mention it.

As far as I can tell the issue is with the way IE handles the white-space style. In IE7 and below it collapses adjacent newlines into a single newline (similar to how it collapses adjacent spaces into 1), but in IE9 it respects newlines.
The only way I can get it to keep the blank line in IE8 is to use the tried and true method of just inserting a single space on the line you want to keep as a blank line.
I'll take a look at the QA editor and see what's happening there. Maybe that will provide an extra clue.

There, you can see the effect live. If you have a pre-block, and you enter a newline, the preview below will not show the newline. And once you submit, and then edit/improve you'll have lost the new lines by that point. So that may actually be a different bug.

Are you seeing any difference for IE7 in forums now?
For me it's working fine, but I am suspecting that my multiple installs of IE are starting to get on each others' nerves.

I have IE8. Let me do a quick test:
class A
{
}
class B
{
}
class C
{
}
|
|
|
|
|
Nope - still problems. OK - I'll see what's going on.
Working fine on our dev boxes so looks like we've sorted it out.

Nope 
IE 8 won't show the newlines!

Seems that solution numbers are completely missing in Q&A posts. Happens at least with Chrome and IE8.
|
|
|
|
|
Well, you did complain about them yesterday. 
|
|
|
|
|
Yep, that's right. Now it's fixed
|
|
|
|

Yes, because there were comments about confusion about numbers changing when answers changed order so I removed them.
It now looks dumb and I'm adding them back. The correct solution to avoid confusion is to label them as they were submitted which will be added to the TODO list.

I thought all posts would be wiped out when the blog went public so it could "start fresh". Is this no longer true?

Found and fixed the issue. Thanks Hans.

When you view existing solutions to questions, the current vote is no longer shown - it always looks like tehre have been no votes.
If you add a vote, then the cumulative value appears, as does the total number of votes.
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

Yeah, I noticed that after I posted it... 
I checked the "known bugs list first, in my defence!

Sorry for the trouble.

When I have some votes on my Answer, I see "no votes" on the Question page. They just disappeared (recently).
(I tested using IE8 and SeaMonkey 2.0.13 (the latest).)
More exactly, all Answer show the current votes as "no voted" on the Question page. It is shown only when I voted. After reloading of this page it shows "no votes" on all Answers, but the vote of Question is shown.
The vote of my Answer is not really a special case; as a vote to myself is impossible, it is never shown. This is not my mistakes: I can see that there are some votes, because I can see it from the list of Answers: I can see the voted Answers by stars .
I also lost the privileges to edit or remove the post of someone else. I need to use it often, especially for moving non-answers to comments or questions.
Can it be related with the accident: I accidentally clicked at "Report at Spam/Abusive" at my own profile page (!).
Can it be fixed?
This click icon is pretty unsafe because there is no such thing as "unreport". Reporting on members is a general issue which would need some discussion.
Thank you very much for your help,
