petermonsson Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I think the short answer is malware. The forum has had problems in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yes, we had to turn off the html formatting to stop the spam stream. It is inconvenient, but the alternative would be to exclusively use corporate URLs to stem the tide. We were booting about 10 - 20 "users" per week before we shut-off the HTML. Now the moderators have to remove about 2 per monthly, mostly for spamming the contributions area. =Admin on behalf of the site moderators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logger Posted December 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 I total get disabling HTML. But what about BBCode? Isn't that restrictive enough to limit abuse? Can BBCode be further limited to only allow the tag? That's really the only tag we need. Thanks, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
