digitmstr Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Hello, I wonder if there is a way for the system to 'recognize' us subscribers/prolificposters and NOT mistake us with SPAMMERS. I was trying to post an HTML ad withlinks to images of the item for sale as well as reviews but, the system refusedthe AD because of something in the code (I am not sure what exactly because ithad a long list of 'possible' causes) that apparently SPAMMERS use. If there was a way for the system to recognize a subscriber who's also aprolific poster that would pretty much eliminate the possibility of SPAM becausea prolific poster could never be a SPAMMER and get away with it. It would becaught before he/she would have a chance to spam twice. I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottershead Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Well, the message refers to spammers, and that is one of the problems, but the real problem is using tags in your HTML code that we don't want to support even if you are a subscriber. So the solution is simply to use more vanilla HTML and stay away from tags that potentially change the layout and graphical look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitmstr Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 I do very basic HTML. The fonts color and/or attirbutes I do change to call attention to certain stipulation of the sale. But, that should be fine, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobatkins Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Nope. You can't use the <font> tag. Just use bold, underline and italic tags if you want to change the way the text looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imh Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 It looks like the inclusion of an additional body tag with an inline style put in the bio I'm not sure all browsers will respond the same way to an additional body tag Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imh Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 mmm just checked with Konqueror (which I believe is related to the Mac Safari browser) and those home pages render the buttons on the top very badly (but correctly on any 'normal' user page) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
