      Absolutely not.

      If used at all, it should only be given to the site admin, but frankly you don't need it. It's too risky. Anything you want to post can and should be done using bbcode.

        Unless you're going to invite the author of the post into your home for a beer, then you shouldn't let them use HTML. Even if you would invite them, you need to think twice about it.
