To disable or not to disable. That is the question.

Disable HTML, yay or nay?

In fact, the more I think about, the more sense it will make to disable HTML here. I know we have some of the HTML scripts screwed up, but I think we should have HTML disabled entirely here at EoFF. It'll prevent people from "hacking" EoFF with their HTML scripts, and it's really not too necessary. But that's just my opinion. Most of the html used already have a vb code assigned, and we have other neat vb only codes, like the spoiler and ooc tag.

I'll include a poll to see what the majorty think. But if you want to add an opinion about why HTML should be kept or removed, I'm not stopping you from replying. :)

I like that EoFF is like the only big community on the internet that has HTML enabled. We have seen very few problems with people abusing it. And we can always ban PG if he uses it too much. :p I say keep it. Plus you can't use the img vB code to link from attachments into the thread.

I've never used HTML. vB Code is easier to understand, too. I don't see a need for it. Atleast to me.

Keep it.

Please keep it, I have never once used vb code. I use <b></b> and <a href=" and <img src=" for everything and disabling it would surely screw me up. I think the vb image tag sucks, personally.

If we ever have a problem with people abusing HTML, then we can turn it off. We never have though.

It's fine the way it is. It's pretty easy to disable everything that could potentially mess things up anyway. And if there's a massive problem, it only takes a few clicks in the admin control panel to prune all a user's posts.

Carpie: There was that one time when RPGW tried to invade EoFF and they included an auto-loader to that "You Are An Idiot" script that only messes up IE. That was a pretty laughably pathetic attempt though, especially since no one in their right mind would use IE.

Leave it. Any potentially troublesome tags are in the swear filter anyway, like marquee, script, blink, iframe etc. :p

I've pretty much only ever used HTML code here. You never see large boards with it enabled these days. But keep it for the sake of <font style="...">

Yeah, you turned off my music in one of the spamfest threads. *shakes fist* :p

Keep it. That's what I use 90% of the time.

I think you should keep HTML but disable the HTML tags that are known to cause problems.

Just to add to the parade, i do like HTML. And from what i've seen, people are pretty respectful of that freedom.

But i will admit, i don't think it'd be the end of the world to disable it.

Keep it. *nod*

I too, have never used vb code with the exception of the quote tags, I'm just used to HTML, so keep it.

I don't care either way. I don't use the html features, but I don't have a problem with seeing other people do so.

If it were disabled I would be highly annoyed.

[rewording of the majority of the above posts]

Keep it please. :)

If you disable html I'll leave forever.

Why did you even waste your breath, pr00t?

He uses his breath to type?

That's why he's that ace (and a mod).

Uhh, mulletman, you got a stain on your nose, you might wanna clean that off. It looks like you dove face first into a chocolate cake.

That's the end of that chapter.

I thought Joel triple-posted and I wouldn't have been surprised if he actually had.

Definet proof that Mr. Mimic is doing a good job, good tidings my fellow doppleganger. *patpat*

You've disabled embed src and bgsound. How can I possibly still be abusing html?

I demand guilt-inducing evidence, yams, or I'll be hating you :rawr:

<3

You could screw with the forums with table tags



I wonder what this does?

That's enough.

Delete all their posts Super Delete.

What posts?

You're not Super Delete-- or are you? *suspicious*

I changed my mind, don't delete all of their posts.

You're missing a period and have one space too many. :)

Your posts are going to be so confusing once you quit the gimmick.

Not the ones around here.

YOU BASTARDS!!!! YOU deleted my posts

That's some nice screwin' there, Ed. ;-)

Thank you :love: ;) :love:

HOLY CRAP YOU GUYS!

any forum that allows html should disable scripts, /table, /body and whatever nonsense. I'm afraid you somehow allowed embed src again

:aimmad:

Is there a way to disable Javascript? Just so that stuff like this: Mouseover doesn't happen?

Mouseover to fix

Stop messing up the forums! And scripts are bad mmkay?

That's pretty funky :p I guess we can ban people if it get's excessive though :D Disabling javascript is possible, but it's sometimes nice to have.

HTML is so amazingly unnecessary for a message board. But y'know whatever.

Some default forum coding is just plain boring, keep the freaking HTML or else I'll kill the little bunny!
