They've said on numerous occasions that this is never going to happen.  It just encourages witch-hunts by overzealous fans and gives people a bad impression of the company.  If you suspect that a site is nulled, then just report it and move on - it's not your job or responsibility to be IPS' copyright police - they have people for that.

How is it spam if the user signed up for a forum and elected to be a member? Spam is something which is unsolicited. If my members want to get trade alerts but have to follow each individual topic to get them, many of them find that really annoying. 

 

I'm not saying the user should not have the ability to override it. And yes, most forums do have this ability. 

No forum has this feature.  They can subscribe people to all new topics, but not once have I ever seen a forum that allows you to force subscribe individuals to every single reply.  Mostly because that's a fast track to a Spamhaus listing.

This is the sort of thing best left to hooks, not the base product.

I'm running an options trading forum. This is how it works: when I open a new trade, I post a new topic in the trades forum. Member who follow the forum get an email. So far so good. But when I close the trade, I post a new post in the same topic. That means that members have to follow the new topic for each new trade to get a follow-up for that trade, and this is extremely annoying. Most forums have a feature to force sending a post to all members. I don't understand why you don't have this feature. It should not be too difficult to implement. Are you planning to have it in the future releases?

Uh, no, most forums do not have such a feature.  Certainly not one which the user cannot override - what you are describing is called "spam", and is technically illegal.

2.3?

Please tell me you kindly told the individual they should upgrade asap?

I would want one merely for legacy upgrades... but actually using it prod?

That's just not safe.

The customer is contracting him to upgrade his 2.3 skin to the latest version - I'd say that's an intention to upgrade to 3.x in the very near future

Matt has this problem because Zend tends to insert with \r\n

Sounds like a config problem.  Mine doesn't do it
