| Quick question about the Shoutbox trend This may just be me, but why would a forum need a shoutbox? Is the original purpose of a forum not to provide a message board? A place to leave messages for others. However, in the past year, I have seen an upsurge of "shoutbox"es and similar implementations. First of all, these people are just asking for a JavaScript injection or other XSS. Secondly, does a shoutbox not defeat the purpose of a forum?
Just something to think about... |
