Or whatever they are called in the latest installed plug-in for vBulletin.
Or at least give members the option to turn them off, PLEASE!
I understand you want to link members to the new Wiki from forum posts. It's a logical progression, and overall a good thing, I believe.
However, the implementation is horrible.
I looked at a post from earlier today, and the only work linked as a smart-tag is LAPTOP. And they all link to the same Wiki article about using a laptop as a PC in your ride.
So why do I think it is so bloody ridiculous?
Think ahead a bit, if you will. Think of all the aspects of vehicle computing, including car audio, CPUs, HDDs, laptops, RAM, desktops, power supplies, video cards, USB devices, CD-ROMs, DVD drives, DSPs, amplifiers, speakers, equalizers, fuses, gauges, OBD readers and so on....
There is (or will be) a Wiki entry relating to just about every component of a PC, a car audio system and a vehicle's electrical system. That means that just about every relevant word in a post will result in an annoying pop-up for everything relevant.
That will make the forum pages more difficult to navigate, slower to load and is likely to put off some new members, and possibly some older members.
