Feedback Minor Dislike - Noobs & Active Links.

This is only a minor annoyance and I'm only posting it for feedback purposes.

As an Noob I'm not allowed to post active links, which is fine, however when I try to post simple text links I get an error - "No active links".

This is because the system is placing these tags in for me.

I then have to remove these tags to post.

It just seems redundant - I would much prefer if the system would not auto tag my post with tags i'm not allowed to use!

Thanks

0010 1011 OR ! 0010 1011 = -1

 

You saying he should disable the auto tagging system?
I don't think there is one

 

Leave off the http:// from the urls. That should work.

 

or put the [plain][/plain] tags around it.

 

This is also a problem. But, I can see the point of the admins/mods .. It prevents spamming. I know on sites I have moderated, that spammers, join and there first post consists of links to porn sites... Or drugs..

This is a great protection, on the other hand, it prevents those not doing wrong, from the freedom to post links. Is this an addon for vbulletin or is it part of the package that does this?

 

Its a part of the package You can change settings to have them not post it.

 

I also have this kind of problem, everytime i report a thread i get this message
"Live links and signatures are not available to you yet (read the FAQ)."

Why?
Shouldnt i get a message like "Thanks for reporting, bla bla bla" ?!

 

that is VB error/configuration

as u can't post links /sign and when u try to report ( which includes the whole post with those links ) vb prevent that

 

I brought that issue up way back when I first started. Got told by a mod that reports from new users weren't thought highly of.
