I hate to report this "bug" or rather "feature request" but... currently, html tags work unabated in user profiel TAGs, Portal descriptions, and everywhere else that is fun. I took it to the max and went around "FLAMINGO'ing" people... such as these people:
So anyways... as you can see, it may be something worth inhibiting. Possibly with removing certain tags, but more likely, maybe just limiting the stretch-ability of the sections. Maybe make the tags section non-scrolling, a set width/height, etc... |

I agree. Html should be limited in a way that can't be used to vandalise PMOG pages or game tools. |

lol yea... that was me, I'll own up to it, whatever the cost. I thought it was hilarious. BUUUT... thinking of the higher good, I figured I should bring this to the attention of those watching in a more expedient manner... I don't mind the little "CHAOS" or user avatar tags... that's sort of a "marking of territory" type thing, and does no harm. That is why I would rather see a size limit rather than abolishment... ...but I understand if the masters have to abolish it as the only choice. I don't know many forums that get to a certain popularity and still allow such things that are easily exploitable in bad ways. |

Yeah, I noticed it when I tried to send a message explaining how to use html to someone, and it displayed a humongous image instead of the example I was trying to show. It's kind of a funny glitch now but I have a feeling that eventually someone will take this too far and run with it. |

Size limits only! Anything yucky should be considered abuse and reported like anything else. |

Aye, I just want a size limit as well, so that I can figure out that there is an image present before scrolling down at work or something. |

See, here's the thing. Image codes in tags are fine because they can be deleted. However, if someone posts a NSFW image or something in a crate/message you don't have a choice before it's already opened. There's no way to report stuff like that short of taking a screen shot and sending it to a trustee, and if it was a tag that was the offender you have no way of knowing who put it there. |

Aye carumba! This will be fixed shortly. Thanks for reporting it @nieman - one thing, though. As Zous will attest, I'm a much happier trustee when people report these problems to me before making them public. If you give us a chance to fix things, we can do it without affecting other users :) |

Sorry, captain! I came across it from the Chaos image tags that had been spread around (and innocently as well) although yea... mine was very much specifically exploitatious (if that's a word...) so I'll refrain from succumbing to temptation next time :P |

A fix has been pushed to live. You should not be seeing images in your tags anymore. |

Yea :( I woulda preferred a size limit, but like I said, if the only FEASIBLE option is dismemberment... :( :( :( |

I agree-- it really adds a new dimension to the game, being able to include images and stuff. You could almost make like a signature for your crates and stuff. Obviously it's easy to abuse, and a limit would be absolutely necessary, but it would be cool in the future! |
