Not planned Strip BBCodes from titles?

I think, personally, if BBCode is detected in titles it should be stripped? I'm guessing something like a removeFormatting() function could be coded to strip BBCodes.

Its not really bbcode in titles, it is just text at that point. At least in my mind.

In all of my years I honestly cannot remember many people using, or trying to use bbcode in titles.

True... but you get the odd idiot who tries

But it doesn't parse anyway if it did it would be a problem... I think stripping it may be a problem as what if someone wants to type... I have a problem with the [media][/media] BBCode... it strips it so you get a "I have a problem with the BBCode" lol

BBCode, HTML, etc in titles should not be stripped. What if I want to start a thread about topics such as...

"How to use the [B][/B] bbcode to make bold text"
"Philosophical problems with the HTML <del> tag"

I pretty much agree here, just thought I'd throw it in there.

I generally don't put the brackets around an element if I want to discuss. "Philosophical problems with the HTML del tag" would be fine.
