I have been testing things out there once or twice, and I find amazing the amount of people settting up extensive amounts of graffito for users to find. It is quite off-putting for your site and products.

I suggest that you look into some kind of censorship for the board to prevent such things.

Even so, is it really the preferred way to expect users to overlook any kind of mess that there may be?

I'm not sure if the vB Devs are still working on a way to control this type of stuff on teh admin demo. Even if they are, it will msot likely be applied until vB3 is released and they have more free time. Currently, it is hard to stop this kind of stuff, when it tells you the admin login and the adminc enter lets you control the entire board.

The point of having a live demo is to allow people to get real hands on experience with it. It would not be easy to do this while at the same time limiting the potential for abuse.

The downside of doing this is that it becomes a magnet for the social retards. :rolleyes:

At the moment you should not be able to add in redirects which was the main problem and has now been resolved. I guess i'll add in checks to make sure they template isn't being removed completely.

If you can think of any other checks then just tell me.
