Figure out a way to provide 100% uptime for SS and no further data losses and I'll lobby for the current way. :-P It's just not going to happen. As I've said, there's good and bad for both sides of the coin. I've stated over and over I understand, but don't agree. I'm not going to change...

I thought I already dropped this? Guess everyone needs a villain.... Splitting hairs, but yes, the site has been "crippled" to not allow the IMG tag to convert it to html insert image tag. There's a lot of "magic" that happens behind the scenes on forums. What you're reading is the HTML...
