Anyway, I'd like a complete list of keywords that can screw up a forum. Allowing tables is just bad, because I could do *inserts close table tags to show you* and mess up the layout....I'll manage.

The things I'm worried about is iframes and *close body/html* tags. What other things should I add?

Just disable HTML entirely.

aye, nobody really needs it... if you can't do it with vBcode it's not worth doing on a forum.

It's always better to disallow everything by default and make a list of things you do want to allow, as opposed to allowing everything by default and trying to disallow the bad things. You'll never think of everything.

Not by MY choice. HTML is disabled at Vesper.

I wonder if the old 'floating comment tag' problem is fixed or not...
[edit] It would seem that it is.
