[RFC] Unsubscribe and Subscribe Mass Email and Email Notifications

Currently, phpBB's mass emailing feature does not have an unsubscribe mechanism built into mass emails sent from the ACP, even though a number of countries may require such functionality, like CAN-SPAM in the US.

Re: "Official" integration with Akismet

I don't think they care if you use it on forums, after all, MyBB includes a akismet plugin it it's core by default disabled, and they haven't said anything.

Re: [RFC] Anti-spam features

Preventing users from posting links until they have X number of posts too... 8-) That could be a simple permission that I proposed a while back that ...

Re: Allow Bookmarking Posts

-1 on this. All you have to do is click the *post* title, and bookmark it in your browser. You now have yourself a bookmark, problem solved. :P No need to reimplement features that are already in your browser. Then again, I don't even use the bookmark topic for the same reason. :lol: I think that l...

Re: WYSIWYG Editor/Rich Text Editor

Please try to stay civil about this. The development team has already made their decision to try and include a WYSIWYG editor in 3.2. We've already taken into consideration the discussions brought up here (and so we will have the option to disable it if you do not wish to use it). Remember, if you ...

Regardless, if it's no longer needed in 3.1, then we should think about removing it (assuming most will agree).

Re: [RFC] Smilies in a dropdown box

+1. Some boards I go on that have a lot of smileys are super annoying when you have to browse through a popup. Who even uses popups these days? :P

Re: [RFC] Access logs of password protected forums

Re: [Define New Theme] 8. Utilize Font Awesome icons where icons are needed to simplify server requests.

anyone knowledgeable enough to use an extension to block adds is also knowledgeable enough to know why this is occurring.
