Bookmarklet To Show Images In Threads 
I love func_msgboard but since day one it's annoyed me that I have to click every single image link to actually see the image. If you're like me, create a bookmarklet and use this bit of javascript as the URL:

-----
javascript:!function(){function e(){(window.myBookmarklet=function(){$('a[href$=".gif"], a[href$=".jpg"], a[href$=".png"], a[href$=".jpg:orig"]').each(function(){var e=$(this).attr("href");$(this).replaceWith('<img src="'+e+'" width="100%" height="auto"></img>')})})()}if(void 0===window.jQuery){var t=!1,a=document.createElement("script");a.src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.0/jquery.min.js",a.onload=a.onreadystatechange=function(){t||this.readyState&&"loaded"!=this.readyState&&"complete"!=this.readyState||(t=!0,e())},document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(a)}else e()}();
-----

(I promise this isn't spyware or anything nasty, just code to replace hrefs with images and some jQuery loading preamble.)

Load a thread, click the bookmarklet and every image link will become an inline image. 
Good Stuff FlatHead. 
 
Taking A Slash 
When you try to post a backslash, the character gets swallowed up. This makes it hard to include the Quake literal for a newline character in a string, as I tried to do in a post on using info_command_spawn. I guess it might be sanitation or html parsing getting confused. Is there any workaround possible, like allowing use of the html entity &92; 
 
based on previous bug reports, it was only the preview function that would steal your slashes.

Wait, Those Should Be Backslashes

Admins, please, reset MFX password. 
 
Someone from Facebook is getting an error 71. Can anyone help? 
 
ah... that means they have the same IP as a previous spam post.

I could relax that rule, maybe block IPs only for a week or something. 
 
okay, i disabled that check, tell that person they can try again now. 
 
Do we need a captcha for anonymous users or something? this spam is getting out of hand. 
Yes. 
 
Agree 
It''s getting quite annoying. 
 
This one is pleasant to use and free! I'm not sure how you use one on a site, but adding it to the register page and the posting page for anonymous users would probably help stop spam quite a bit. 
Recaptcha Is Compromised. 
Just use a simple security question. 
 
Is it? I mean, that's the version offered by google, of all people. 
 
I looked it up, it does seem to be broken. Still, it seems like it would be a sufficient barrier to entry for the no doubt low-effort spammers we have right now. I feel like a security question would be easier to target for them, would it not?

In other words, why use something that's even more broken than something else just because that thing is broken?

Also, would the bots (I assume) that target this site be purpose built? I mean, we're not running on vBulletin after all. 
 
"Is it? I mean, that's the version offered by google, of all people."
Yeah, and Google would NEVER want to compromise your security, right...? 
 
I'm pretty sure if Google wanted to compromise someone's website they'd have better ways to do it than captcha. Well, I'd hope so. It'd be kind of sad otherwise. 
 
They've already shown the extent of their will to spy on your privacy, I don't think they give a shit about any other's security but their own. 
 
Why do we even allow anon posting anyway? 
 
Exactly, why?
(people using Tor will start to cry in 3... 2... 1...)
