Hello! All,
I wish to have Simple Machines Forum Software in my own site.Few things about my site,we are into stocks and trading ,so I want genuine people to join my forum ,make it a good discussion forum and get mutual benefited.

Some questions that crossed my mind:
1)Does the Simple Machines forum administrator or moderators has options of filtering adult contents(URL or video links) or blocking the member as such who has posted adult contents in my site's forum ?
2)Does the Simple Machines forum administrator or moderators has options to block any member who has posted abusive language to moderator or co-members ?

With Regards
Stock Analyst

You can ban anyone by username, IP or email. You can also restrict posting privileges for any member. There is a word filter as a standard feature if you wish to stop swearing being displayed.

Filtering posted content is more difficult and would require a mod. Most sites rely on the staff to clean up that sort of thing. There is a "report to moderator" feature so members can report offensive posts.
