In an attempt to format some questions (especially Minecraft crash questions) using this guide, I have run into a an issue concerning listing mods.
Some users come with games with over 100 mods (like this question) (Update: I attempted an edit on the previously mentioned question, but believe since the list was too long it was rejected or was a major factor for its rejection).
I started to format the list of mods as a bulleted list and boldfacing the version number. For example,
- CodeChickenCore 0.9.0.9
- Micdoodlecore 8
- NotEnoughItems 1.6.1.9
The goal is to make it easier to read the mod name and version used. However this approach does not scale well; it stretches down the page for some atrocious amount of length.
I tried simply blockquoting the list but it does not scroll for many lines.

Bottom Line
Is there a means, through markdown or HTML, for a list to keep its rich format and be scrollable?
Update
I see the difference between blockquoting and preformatting. Blockformatting lacks the ability to scroll through a lot of lines. I have added an example list. I re-worded the question.
CodeChickenCore
0.9.0.9

and version number (on both sides).
