Of course once again with this subject the fact SysOps are required to check 
the contents of bulletins entering the network is forgotten.

Whilst it is fairly simple to check if there is only a line or two of HTML at 
the start of a bulltin it's a different matter when the text of the message is 
swamped in HTML it is not.

Like a lot of things on this mode if it's used sensible it's OK but many years 
of experience tells me that this will not happen because the idiot element 
will always try to out do each other thus bloating out bulletins with miles of 
HTML code. The idiots killed it last time and they will kill it again when 
ever it's tried.
