This is the old argument I had with Goodreads; some of us want to format our works like actual authors and not fanfic- spewing phillistines. HTML has no provision for a first- line indent, and from what I've seen the software engines will strip out any attempt at using a style sheet to provide one.

The response I remember getting was, "Well, maybe its time for grammar to adapt to the internet instead of expecting the internet to adapt to grammar."
